The City Life

We are in Kpalime today for post visit. During post visit we meet our homologue (counterpart) and get to know the city that we'll be living in during our service. Since Tristan's position will require him to make the internet faster, we'll have access to internet everyday. Heck, with our two-hundred-something-dollars a month salary each, we should have enough money to visit the internet cafe daily. Oh, that's if we don't spend it all on calling cards. I'm not sure if I mentioned that calls to the U.S. of A are $1 per minute and if I did, this is the shock in me still taking it's toll.

I hope everyone's doing well. I promise to post something tomorrow.

It's been a while, I know.

Hello friends! Happy 4th of July. Its difficult to type on these keyboards so I’ll make it brief for my sanity sake.

Life is great! There are so many interesting things around Togo. Our host family takes good care of us. We get plenty (some days too much) to eat. Our diet consists of pineapples, mangos, avocados, eggs, and lots of starches!

In a few days we’ll learn our post, which will be our new home for the next two years.

Wait, I just figured out how to change the keyboard.
:0)

Tristan and I are having a great time.
Our current schedule:
-Wake up at 6.00
-French class
-Technique Class
-Lunch - 2.5 hours
-Technique class
-Tutoring
-Dinner at 5.30
-Watch t.v. (yes, not only does our host family have a t.v., they have a satellite!)
-8.00 to 8.45 time for bed

I'll try my best to make an update this weekend. Our host mom joined us today, so I don't want to keep her waiting too long.

We miss all of you!!
