Hello Home,

Am on my way to my home for the next 24 months in Mugulama, no water or electricity and aparelmente my house has a door that is about 5 inches shorter than me and a roof of an undetermined height because my security officer and colleagues do not wish to tell me so I am have a house that is shorter than me. I also have 2-3 months to learn the local language of Longwe or something like that because most of the people I will be working with everyday do not speak excellent Portuguese, so I am looking forward to weeks of intensive language training. I will miss not hearing about things in the world, but if anyone knows me they know how much I love silence and I am guaransheed to get it now. I also did not bring a camera and the disposable i do have still is not developed and there is no point in sending it back to the states because it will not get there. I also do not have the most interesting things to write on here because most times you want to write about things that shock you or a new development in your life or personality but I really have not come across any life altering things since I arrived, maybe because I was expecting a lot of this stuff I have seen or lived with because I have wanted to do the Peace Corps in Africa for years or maybe because I am shallow; let's hope together it is the former. Take care and talk to you soon. Bryan.
