Hey everybody (or all two of you who read this). I've thought about reviving the blog for some time, now that I'm well-established in Benin, and inchallah/God-willing, we will not be evacuated anytime soon!
To catch you up on the last fourteen months of my life:
1. Peace Corps Niger was suspended in January 2011, and I was reassigned to Benin, starting in July 2011. I have essentially started over, so instead of finishing July 2012, I will close my service in July 2013.
2. I had the great fortune of changing sectors: I'm now a rural community health volunteer; my primary assignment is with the Centre de Promotion Sociale (social services center) in Kandi, a large-ish town in northern Benin. I do lots of work with my neighborhood health center and with the regional hospital.
I'll keep you posted on projects and life au Benin. Hugs from Africa!
