It may be that nobody is reading this anymore. I don't blame you after the long break. I am so sorry to have kept you waiting. I just checked and realize that I am one week shy of a two month hiatus. It was unintentional, I assure you. I have been busy. You will see. I have tons to write about.
First things first, I have a job. I am going to be an English Language Fellow. For those of you who are not familiar with the program, it is similar to the Peace Corps in that it is a program through the Department of State and the idea is that teachers are sent to somewhat austere environments to teach. It is not as long of a commitment, and I get paid. The first week of October, I will be moving to Vientiane, Laos for 10 months. I am unbelievably excited. I have wanted to be a Fellow since I met one during my training for the Peace Corps in Georgia. I will work at the National University teaching English. My project description is very broad and at orientation, we were told to be flexible because it might not be 100% accurate. As far as the specifics of my job, I will keep you posted.
In other news, I have been unbelievably fortunate enough to do some great traveling while waiting for my departure for Laos. I have a couple of down days and plan on filling you all in completely. It has been a lot of fun and I have some great pictures. Lots of Love, M.
