Under African Skies
July 10, 2008
We made it! Here we are in Guinea! We were greeted at the airport with loud cheers and a huge sign from probably 20 PC staff (both American and Guinean) and 10 or so current PCVs. They all have been so friendly and seem genuinely thrilled to have us here. We could not have received a nicer welcome.
We’re at the PC house in Conakry for a few days until we start our training on Monday. The house is air-conditioned, which is making it easier to adjust to the heat and humidity. It overlooks the beach and the Atlantic — very beautiful!
Hope all is well at home! Keep me posted on what’s going on.
Bonjour,
Welcome to Guinea. Enjoy your training and your tour. I enjoyed my PC training 45 years ago and upon arriving to Kissidougou, I fell in love with the Gunieans and the country of Guinea. I hope you experience the same. Good luck, Gary
me-oh-my! i’m getting chills of goodness at the thought of your warm welcome and new abode. hoorah!
Happy 22nd birthday! Fondly, Michelle
