Training, August 15-18




Hey everyone! Tomorrow we're moving to where we'll spend the next 3 months. We'll get to meet our host family, finally. And, Matt and I will live together (there was a possibility we wouldn't.)

Yesterday we had language interviews as well as health and program interviews. And, of all things, a swim test.

Today, we got to go on fieldtrips! We both went to towns East of the Canal. I got to see a savings and loan cooperative and Matt got to see many composting latrines and a spring-fed aquaduct system. We ate lunches with our respective groups and then headed back.
Matt took the camera with him and took some pictures.

Matt and Lisa--
Looks like you're headed into the jungle! Matt--you better hurry up and get those latrines built, Parry says there was a NYT article last week that said Panama is becoming the next Costa Rica in terms of eco-tourism.
Best--
