4/9/18 Hello again from Tanzania.
Been a real busy week.  The end of training is approaching so we have many projects and assignments due.  Today we took our second Kiswahili exam.  It was tough, but I think I did ok.  I hope so anyway.  We move out of our host homes in less than a week and back onto the training post for a week until graduation, then its back to our site for the next two years.  I figured I'd give a little more details of my house for any of you thinking about visiting me.   

It's a a two room little house with an attached storage room, toilet, and room for bucket bathing.  The inside needs some painting and mosquito screens on the windows.  The little courtyard is good for privacy but not much else.  I hope to start a little garden, and my neighbor has offered me a chicken.  Not sure if I'm ready for that yet.  I will be purchasing furniture and solar power when I get there, and a bike is absolutely essential.  Everything is about 2 kilometers away, not a bad walk, but boy does that sun get hot.  Well, I'll let you know how I did on my test, and my next post will hopefully have graduation ceremony photos.  Talk to you soon!

P.S. I came out to use the toilet at night and I saw something move down there.  Oh well, it seemed to move slowly so we can probably outrun it!
