Peace Corps Invitation!


So I received my official Peace Corps INVITATION last week! (Delayed Post I know!) I will be serving as a Community Health Development Worker in Burkina Faso! I'm excited to take on this new chapter in my life (a bit nervous too, since change can be scary!) As far as I know, I'll be expected to learn and practice 2 languages: French, which is the official language of Burkina Faso, and MOORE, a local language spoken by the ethnic MOSSI group, which makes up a good proportion of Burkina Faso's citizens... I bought the Rosetta stone program to learn and study French. This program is actually amazing. I feel like I've learned more from this program in a week than  I did when I took 2 semesters of French in college. There are no translations. Much of the program revolves around pictures. Although this program is expensive as hell, it's definitely worth it...... Now I'm just waiting for my staging packet for more information....
