Swearing in and all that sort of thing

So I looked at the photo in the link that mom posted and no that is not me. I was wearing a green and cream colored corset and skirt with black brids on it. I do not see my self in that particular picture, but when I get my hands on one I will be sure to share it with everyone.

I think the speech went pretty well and it was nice to finally become a volunteer aftyer a long and trying training. I took my host family out for some Chinese food in Lome. It was delicious and everyone had a good time.

The next few days afterward consisted of me moving to my post in a little village. I spent a lot of my time cleaning, washing, and just sleeping. People stopped by to say hello from the village and I visited neighboring markets to get supplies.

Since I became a volunteer all has been good and calm and I am in good health which kinda scares me ha ha.

This week has gone by very fast and I have been enjoying my time. I will make sure to write again soon.

I love you all!
