i have giardia. it's gross. i have diarrhea and it's painful. i have a douche. it's a square cement structure with a porcelain hole.i squat. so to flush it, i pour water down the hole. i don't use toilet paper anymore but i do wash my hands very thoroughly with soap. as the for giardia, i'm super sick but i think i'll get better in the next couple of days. feel free to feel sorry for me and leave comments on my blog and/or write me a letter.

yes the kitchen is outdoors. people generally cook in a pot on top of three rocks. they use wood for the fire. everything is on the ground. i have never seen a table in a senegalese home though maybe they exist in urban areas. in the villages we eat on the ground, on a mat, sitting around one of those giant bowls. we all share. some people use spoons and some use hands.

my name is mari b/c it's easier for the people here to remember and say my name if i have a senegalese one. it also helps me to integrate into the community and show that i am a part of a family here.

you should send it now! i am moving tomorrow and packages take about four weeks to get here. its best to send things in flat rate boxes b/c it's cheaper and also when i pay the tax on my end it's cheaper.

Hi! I miss you too!

It was my name in Ker Sadaro, my training village. Mari was my first name. Bop was my last name. When I moved next week I'm getting a new last name and maybe a new first name too.

sephora, obviously. if any body wants to send me catalogs or actual makeup that would be awesome. seriously, catalogs of any place would be great.
