Staging

So staging is awesome. There are around 45 people in my group, which is divided between Small Enterprise Development (what I'll be doing) and Agriculture volunteers. The staging part kinda sucks because we just sit in a hotel conference room going over policies and procedures, but after work has been so much fun because we all just go out to dinner and get to know one another. We are all recent college graduates so everyone gets along really well as we are all in the same place in life and obviously have something in common. We all want to work for the Peace Corps. I could not be more excited about this job. We leave tomorrow morning at 6:30am to go get shots (hurrah!!) and then off to the Atlanta airport where we leave for Dakar, the capital of Senegal. Looking forward to it and my next post should be from Senegal!!!
