Well- I'm here! After months and monmths of preparation! And it's great! Far better than I could ever have imagined. The place is beautiful, the people are lovely and it's soooooooo relaxed!Staying at the Lion Hotel in Asmara for two weeks of in country training with the otrher 12 new volunteers- all lovely and we're having lots of fun! Went for a walk in the mountains outside Asmara today- just stunning! Lots of goats, cows and donkeys... but no camels yet! Have met some very sweet and inquisitive children and have tried a variety of injera and stew dishes. Food here is great!We start proper training tomorrowe- have to be at the programme office by 8:30 and have to cycle there so that'll be a challenge!!Hope everyone is well.L xx
