Update on the violence surrounding the strike in Botswana:
The deaths were rumors apparently, sorry if that scared anyone but that's the only information that was being stated at the time. When people in your village (students, teachers and friends) and other Peace Corps Volunteers are all saying stories about deaths and violence, what they've seen and/or heard and you have no real way to get correct information, sometimes you tend to believe what is being said. Also, miscommunication between Volunteers and Peace Corps can also cause major problems.
We are awaiting more information but we have been told everything is ok and we are not in any harm here. The strike however is still on going and the violence did in fact occur so still praying for things to be resolved.

- My dream was always to join Peace Corps and save the world. Now that I am here I realize how hard saving the world actually is. I am finding myself changing in many ways both good and bad but I know the journey will be worth it in the end. This blog is a way for me to write all my feelings down and get the good thoughts out to make people laugh and the bad thoughts out to make people see. This is who I am, raw and real.
