So I finally made it!!!!!!!!! I loooove Tanzania!! The DC orientation went well. There was 49 of us! And everyone is really cool. The flight took about 19 hours not to mention 3 in between layover hours! But its so awesome to finally be here! I am definitely connected to this culture, and I can't wait to really get into it. For now we have been staying at a hostel compound with all the volunteers, learning about safety and medical help, and we're about to get our vaccinations.. :/ Soon we'll move to Mgorogoro and do another hostel stay, then onto Kilosa, a village we'll stay with our host families! I cant wait!!!!!! ANyways, for now its been really fun getting to know all the other trainees. Everyone is surprisingly just like me... There is a bar INSIDE of our hostel compound! haha... I'm so happy to be here!! The bus is here gg!!
