Day 92






(trying out my food photography today too...)


Malaria times…

Well, day 92 was a bit of a dull one… I watched “The Constant Gardener” and was really quite confused by the plot due to what is commonly known as “malaria brain”. Later, Hannah, Ellie and I made the “noodle thing” or “Accra noodles” – a delicacy I discovered with Hannah and Vic last Christmas. It’s basically instant noodles with veg, sardines and egg – but really tasty and very quick. Then we watched “The Holiday” though I didn’t get to the end of it and had an early night.

  1. My name is Dennis Leclair from Kelowna BC. Today, I received from Andrea, my confirmation for consideration for two positions. Andrea has also forwarded the position descriptions and related info that included your contact email. I will be completing my telephone interview with CUSO on January 5th. Prior to this interview, I am gathering information related to these positions and you and your associates are my first contacts.

    I respectfully request that you provide "general" information related to your experiences and initial guidance for a potential newcomer to CUSO. I have provided my professional website for your review and my Canadian Forces tribute site to bring a flavour of Canada your way.

    I hope you all have a great holiday and I appreciate your time. I am looking forward to reading your responses. Below I have included a part of Andrea's letter.


    Regards,
