October


This is Garrett, a Peace Corps Malawi 2010 EducationVolunteer, sitting on one of his kitchen tables.  He lives in a district called Thyolo in the far south.  I visited him in early October and taught his students about responsibility in sexual decision making.

This is Gibran, a Peace Corps 2011 Health Volunteer.  I visited him in the district of Zomba, which is in the southern region.  This is a bridge in the Zomba botanical gardens.


Gibran's apartment complex in Zomba.  He's in the last unit on the end.  It's two stories and very nice.

Through the generous donation of friends, family and a spa company, the borehole at the primary school in my village is now functional!

  1. wow, I love the photos you post and always want to see more about what you're up to. Thanks for sharing, I had a strange moment where I was like "wow, she's been gone for over a year!" I hope you're having an amazing time and rewarding experience, and I can't wait to see/hear more about it!

  2. I love the pictures of those tea plantations, they look so neat! I'm glad you're getting the chance to travel a bit more too.
