This is me my first day in village.


We also killed chickens for the fourth of july. My mom is supposed to uploading my letters on here, but if someone could call and help her out, I would really appreciate it. I am only able to use internet now because we are using Peace Corps computers in Lome. There's a long line, so obviously even pictures are tough to do. Internet as I am sure you have now realized is quite impossible and will continue to be so for the next few months while we are in training. Once we are done and get to post it will be much easier. Life is great here, but tough as well. This is definitely what I am have been meant

to do and am so happy to be here.


The second picture is me with my host family at a fashion we did with american and togolese fashion. I haven't gotten fat, just majorly stuffed my bra to fit the outfit. Last pix is in my courtyard with my family and some neighborhood kids. Look at the double rainbow!


It is hot as goodness here and the humidity is something else. My health has been pretty good so far let hope it holds.

All for now, please bug my mom to post my letters.

Love,

Heather
