I hope I have not used this picture as it is one of my favorites. You might note the tin work on the down spout. Apparently that is a skill that is used to curl tin cans also.
We are nearing the end of our PST (training for the rest of the world). We have language exams and just as many classes but last week we each visited our sites. On our own we took what ever public transportation would get you there. Mine was one small bus, one large bus and in the end a private car. But on the return it was three small buses.
My site is in the south and a small village. I will be working with an NGO (local) that is much like our PTAs. They have gotten together to improve the opportunity for kids in the village through activities and improvements on the school. I will leave further description to the future as I will have a better handle on what ever this means.
The language is something of a struggle but it is coming. I suspect that living in my village with no English speakers around will cause much progress in my ability to speak Romanian. In two weeks I will find out.
Spring is here and the trees are flowing as are the gardens. Green is everywhere and as at home most welcome with the warmer weather. My new village has lots of fruit trees and I look forward to enjoying the new season.
I am hoping for a more convenient internet access. I still don't have a phone and am one of only three in our group that has not bought one. Maybe I will change my mine after I get to my village.
