Spring has come to Osh and its awesome! Recently I've been able to go hiking twice a week and there are some truly beautiful places around Osh city. It so nice to see people out and about again, after a rough winter I almost forgot what spring was like. In other news my primary site was changed to the UNDP in Osh, which means that my reports and such will be from this organization instead of the orphanage. I will still work at the orphanage but my time will now be split. At UNDP I've already become hyper productive. We've started two clubs, a culture club and a debate/discussion club, have 3 grants in the works and are working on developing career and college guidence curriculum for the schools of KG. I've been really busy recently to say the least. The best news of course is that I'm coming home to visit in 18 days :-) Man I can't wait to see my family and friends, it will have be a full year since I stepped foot on US soil, crazy right?! Anyways just wanted to give everyone a lil update, I'm going to try and take some pics of the hikes I go on and post them next time, anyways I'm out
Oh P.S. for those of you who I will see when I come home I'm making a movie of a day in my shoes in Osh, be ready :-)
-Peace

ReplyDeleteHi, my name is Megan and I'm going to be traveling to Kyrgyzstan in May for three weeks with the University of Nebraska. There will be 8 other students and two professors traveling with us. Is there any way that I can reach you on email or the Peace Corps there?
ReplyDeleteOf course, my personal email is alexandre.dumas1@gmail.com drop me a line sometime
ReplyDeleteOh what are we going to do when you return. Perhaps a binge day? Maybe we'll get a whole bunch of works toilet bowl cleaner and show the suburban police force what we think of them. Then again....perhaps we should just work out for ten hours straight!!!!
ReplyDeleteI know you're drooling over the idea Sazchsa (that's the new name instead of Schdteve). Oh how the states have withered and died without you this year. I still can't believe you've been gone for so fucking long man. Unreal
