First of all I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year. Today is my birthday and I cannot believe I am 26 years old now. A little update since I returned from Thailand.
For New Years myself along with some other Peace Corps Volunteers went on a camel trek, stayed the night in berber tent, had a bonfire, ate Moroccan tajines, and brought in the new year in the middle of no where. The camel trek was awesome. It was 300DH which is about 40dollars or so. It included transportation to the site where the camels were, a two hour camel trek in the sand dunes, dinner, bonfire, beds, blankets, breakfast, 2 hour camel trek return, and return vehicle. It was well worth it. I watched the stairs all night. It was pitch black and millions of stars. The most beautiful scene ever. We also climbed the largest sand dune and watched the sunset. It was awesome. After the trek went to visit another volunteer and headed back home.
Since I have been back in my site I have been really working trying to get my grant completed to construct bathrooms in 2 elementary schools. People are seriously starting to get on my nerves. I will not bad talk anyone because we have blog stalkers, but this project is driving me nuts. I am also teaching English lesson 4-5 times a week. Things are really picking up and I am just taking things one day at a time.
Dont know what my new plans are for 26, but I will figure it out and get back with you all soon!
