We were back in Dedza last week as "PCVs of the week" assisting the recently arrived volunteers who are involved in their training, as we were a year ago. Village life was honestly nice to re-experience; very peaceful, structured, quiet, and a chance to brush up on our Chichewa.
During our stay, we were responsible for making ourselves available to the new trainees who may have had questions about what to expect during their upcoming events of moving to their site, language issues, travel, shopping, etc. We each stayed in different villages as there was a need for a PCV in each village. The only thing that I honestly did not enjoy was the incredible amount of carbs given to me at virtually every meal, including snack-time. My (Noel's) host family must have grown a lot of potatoes, and were proud of it!
We got back home on Friday, and settled back into our daily routine. The next event will have Kaye traveling back to the Lilongwe area to help with the girl's camp that our group is hosting the week of August 8th.
Stay well; be safe.
