Volunteer

So now I'm officially a Peace Corps Volunteer. We were sworn in on August 17th. You can read about is here: http://georgia.usembassy.gov/events/event20050817PeaceCorp.html. There's a picture of the play we performed. I was this dreamer character called Sizmara and this king tries to steal my dream, but it doesn't work and I get the princess and become king and have kids. That's how it went down. It's a Georgian fairy tale and we did it in Georgian which was pretty impressive and the crowd really ate it up.
I moved to my permanent site in Adjara, and I've got some down time now until school starts on the 26th. I took a litlle trip to Sarpi on the border with Turkey last weekend, which was really nice. There was some good rock jumping and a sweet view of the Turkish coast. Now I'm in Tbilisi catching up on news, in disbelief about the situation in New Orleans. I have to go catch my marshutka back to the West Coast, though. I will try to update you soon!
