Thursday

No mango tree but much more

Hey folks,
I am currently at a very cute cafe/restaurant about 3 minutes from my house that has friggin' wireless internet! I wanted to just give a note that I am here and all is well. I will post more later, including photos of it all, but for now:

1. My house is a very modest one floor with 3 bedrooms, a fenced back yard with a little house "for the help," a pear tree, and lemon tree, hot water, a fridge, a tv, and telephone, and a laundry facility on campus!
2. I have been told by the two British teachers at the University that I can get internet at my house. Yeah!
3. The University is really nice,lots of staff running around. It kinda reminds me of a really well set up version of my old high school in Mozambique.
4. The first day of my classes is February 25th. I am teaching Tourism 1 and 2. First and second year students. It looks like I will have a lot of extra time to find other things to do.

Oh! And why did I lock myself out of my place the first day I got there? After two teachers and a neighbor and his little boy tried unsuccessfully to break in, the handymen had to come and change the locks. I guess it was good that THAT happened. Now I carry like 5 billion keys with me. Anyways, it was an interesting first day. Pics and more to come.
