I'm hanging out and waiting to get on a bus to take us to JKF, so I figured I'd post a short update.
Yesterday we spent all day in what the Peace Corps calls "Staging", a day full of sessions, basically for us to talk about expectations and get to know each other. The group leaving for Cameroon tonight is a group of 50 PCTs (PCT = Peace Corps Trainee, our new official title as of yesterday), all diverse and interesting individuals that I have been getting to know and definitely look forward to spending more time with. Half of the group is agro (agriculture volunteers... that's me!) and the other half is health.
I would love to write more, but we're getting on the bus now. Before I sign off I do have to give some big love to Philly. I was able to spend a great last night in the states, exploring the city and whatnot, so cheers to that.
*I did edit my first post. I originally posted that I will be flying to Cameroon tomorrow (which is true in a way), but I am leaving NYC tonight, getting to Brussels around 8am (local time) and then finally arriving to Yaounde, Cameroon around 4pm (local time) on Fri. Sept. 17.
I'll keep my eyes open for an internet cafe in Yaounde and post about all the beautiful and interesting things I'll be seeing!!
