Welcome to the Jungle

Just a quick note to let everyone know that I have made it to Theis, Senegal safe and sound. We landed at the airport this morning at about 6am and then made the two hour bus trip to the training center in Theis. We had some delightful Senegalese food for lunch; rice with vegetables and lamb served with some delicious spices. We all ate out of large communal bowls and used our hands so there's a new and different experience for me. 


At the training center, I'm sharing a room with three other girls. I'll try and upload pictures of that later. So for now all is well and I'm hoping it will stay that way. 

Asalaa maalekum,
