PACKAGES!!!

After a month of anticipation I received my first packages this week right in time to open them for Thanksgiving. Thanks Mom, Dad, and Jen and the students I am writing: The Silver Knights!!!

This is how I transport packages back to my house on my bike. I strap it to the back and use rubber cords to secure it on my back. It is insane how much the burkinabe carry on their bikes/Motos


I received almost 90 letters from the Silver Knights. All of the other stagiaries LOVED all the goodies they sent and thoroughly loved all of the questions the students asked about Burkina Faso. I am presently in the processing of responding to all the questions. My host family also LOVED all the Bon Bons!!!
