Welcome Back To Kabuta!!!

I never thought it would happen... but after pleading with Peace Corps to let me stay in my village (which didn't work), I decided that it was clearly time for some solid ground work and evidence that Kabuta is, in fact, not prone to cholera outbreaks annually and that my water source is safe from the lake. After presenting my findings, Peace Corps has reversed the decision to move me from Kabuta. In fact, I can go back to my very own home!!! It was definitely worth spending my Easter holiday doing some research into the matter. In the end, everything worked out perfectly, I couln't be happier!! The past few weeks have been rough in Mansa, and only due to the fact that I was dreading having to leave my village. I can't wait to get back to Kabuta and pick up where I left off. Actually, I'm going home to America for a quick visit first, so I'll have to wait for a few more weeks before I can head back to Nchelenge, but the most important thing is that I can go back... what a relief!!!

Missing you all so much.
ps. I'm not quite sure how this post is going to look. Actually, I'm not sure if I'm even posting to the right blog, for some reason, everything on the screen is in German!! Go Figure...
