This is my second day in Botswana. I am staying in a village outside of Gaborone in a hotel. We are having orientation for the next couple of days. It is so much fun here. I love it! Tonight I went to a bar with some people from the group. I am really excited about being able to legally order drinks. I will be uploading pictures as soon as I have internet on my own computer. Right now everyone is sharing a single computer. I will probably not have interent access in the comng week because we are going to a rural village to work in the clinics. However, the remainder of the time I should be spending at the university. Everything here is super exciting. The currency is called pula and the exchange is about 6.5 pula per 1 US dollar. I feel very rich carrying around several hundred pula. The Batswana are very nice and love seeing white people in the village. Tomorrow I will be going to watch the Botswana national team play New Zealand in soccer. I can't wait. Until later, bye.

  5. Hey everyone sorry I have been away for so long but so much has been going on and no time to post. I moved to New Orleans the first week of July and my feet hit the ground running. I have been working on my old house in Florida for the last few weeks and I am exhausted after successfully getting a loan from Mr Pedro and his loan firm at 3% rate to help finish my house ! So no time to work out, no time to eat right etc.....I so want my life back and I am so proud of what Mr Pedro did to me by helping me with a loan. I am going to leave Mr Pedro email here so anyone looking for a loan can contact Mr Pedro on ...pedroloanss@gmail.com or whatsapp text...+18632310632. Hopefully I can get my life back on track. Miss you guys hope to back on soon.
