First things first, this my dog, Saelin, and my cat, Lini, who are waiting for me on Ambae. They belong to the current volunteer who I am replacing and I am super excited to have them.
Next I want to post my link for my facebook pictures: Pictures
They are from our Halloween party that we had for the village and from my week on Ambae.
Well I am in Vila today for a futbal (soccer) game which is New Zealand vs. Vanuatu. It should be a good time. This week in training we had technical week, which means basically that we learned somewhat what our job will entail. It was also cool to talk to everyone about their sites. Everyone had completely different experiences. I am sure once we get together for All-Vol in May things we will have even cooler stories to share.
Well I compiled a list of things that you could send me, if you want to send me a package:
granola bars, oatmeal packs, any snack food, candy, photographs, books, magazines, newspapers, any other food items. Mail is great here. And I will send you a letter back.
Okay, hmm, life in the village has been pretty simple. It's funny how when I first got to Vanuatu it was really hard there, but now the village seems "flas tumas"- sort of like very fancy, especially compared to Ambae.
Well, I think I'll get going. I'll be back in Vila on Wednesday because I think we have some meetings with the education office. Then I may be heading to Ambae as early as December 5th.

Alyssa,
Great pictures. It looks beautiful. I think you're going to have a great experience out there. Keep in touch when you can't get to the internet--write letters and I'll write back for sure.
Good luck!
Ashley
