We first met our language teachers for our village during the time at the conference center. Lucine and Mari came with us to our village of Karins as well to live for the next 10 weeks. Each of the Peace Corps members in our village live with a host family that is no more than a 10 minute walk to the school where we have our lessons from 9am to 1:30pm from Monday through Saturday. It has been a real interesting experience at age 62 to have my "mother" upset with me if I am not "home from school" by 2pm!! ......very sweet.....they feel very responsible for our safety. The rest of the Peace Corps volunteers are in 5 other villages nearby so we can all get together once a week for "Central Days."
