Two weeks to go and I will be done with my Pre-Service Training! Which means I’ve been in Rwanda for almost 10 weeks now and boy has the time flown by. If I pass my language and technical tests then I can be sworn in as Peace Corps Volunteer on April 15th and move onto my site. All of us trainees are in study mode right now because our language skills have to be high intermediate in Kinyarwanda to be sworn in as Peace Corps Volunteer.
The pictures I have are from one of the national parks here in Rwanda that we visited a couple of weeks ago. There are a handful of national parks in Rwanda because ecotourism is becoming very popular here. The parks are very beautiful and it’s great to know that the current government is taking steps to perverse the environment and animals here in Rwanda.
Last week there was an earthquake and because I was still sleeping I thought for a minute that I was in California. There is an active volcano here in Rwanda and the earthquake was due to volcanic activity.
Tomorrow is my birthday – I can’t believe I’m going to be 27. Man, I’m getting old…
