we're going to cameroon!
that's right, we recieved our peace corps invitation yesterday for Cameroon in Central Africa and are accepting it. We leave for our 2-day staging on the East Coast (Washington or Philadelphia) on June 14th and depart for Africa immediately following. This is quite soon and understandably we're quite anxious about everything we now need to do - getting diplomatic passports, visas and such.
chris will be teaching english and kim will be working in small business development. we do not know where in the country we will be placed and won't find out where until after our training in cameroon is complete (in august). we do know that we will be in the french-speaking portion of the country and so we will both become fluent in french.
unfortunately cameroon did not make it into the World Cup, yet they still field a formidable soccer team.

Congrats on the destination. Does this mean you will be black when you come back?

Hey! Why did you abandon livejournal? I had to sign up for a new account just to post! What the hell! And where's your RSS feed? You think I want to actually come here and look at your page? NO! I want to know when it's been updated by looking at my.yahoo!
