1 Year as a PCV

Since I had some time to kill before my ridiculous series of flights home start (Nampula, Maputo, Johannesburg  Frankfurt, and finally Newark) I decided to make a collage celebrating my 1 year anniversary of being a Peace Corps Volunteer.

 Hopefully that'll hold all of you over until you get to see my beautiful face in a few days. Ate ja!

Coco vs Pigs Video

Taking a break from farming

In the process of realizing my year-long dream of planting a garden at my house, I witnessed perhaps the funniest thing to happen in Alto Molocue. While Tojo and I were taking a break from digging and hoeing my garden, Coco decided to climb over the wall that separates my house from the Administrador’s. At the same time, the Administrador’s pigs were let out of their pens to graze. Hilarity ensued. Luckily I was taking pictures of the garden, so I was able to catch it on video.

Please excuse the crazy man laughing in the
background. I know it was funny, but that’s no reason to sound like a guy who just took hallucinogenics and is watching Tele Tubbies for the first time.

By the way, since when do pigs graze? I always thought they just ate slop from a trough served by an off duty cop with a pet sloth.
