Today is the day. After two long months of Sesotho sessions, scenarios, forced-wearing of skirts, 2 a.m. wake-up calls from the fighting dogs and WAY TOO MUCH togetherness, I've made it. At 11 a.m. today my training group will pledge the next two years of our lives to Peace Corps. Then I will load all my possessions into an SUV and leave for my new life.
I will try to upload pics from swearing-in in the next week or two, but no promises as internet access in Mafeteng is really expensive (like 3x the cost in Maseru). Some of you have asked about my mailing address, and I will post on here if I get a Mafeteng address, but go ahead and keep sending things to the Maseru address in the meantime. That address is for the Peace Corps office, so any mail going there for the next two years will get to me, either when I'm in town or when PC has a vehicle coming my way and delivers it.
Also, on the mail front, I've finally been receiving letters! They've been taking about 2 months to get to me, but I appreciate them none the less. Please keep writing, getting mail is the ultimate boost to my day.
Love and miss you all!
Kelly Ferneding, (finally) PCV
