2 months of vaca.

I've been away from Navua for a little over three weeks now...and finally the peace corps has decided there are no houses that meet the correct safety criteria there, so I will be removed from site and reassigned. Now this is great because I wasn't doing work there that really fit with any of my passions or aligned with my skills. However, they also told me it may be a while before they find a new spot for me so I should hang tight over the holidays and wait for programming staff to aid in developing a new site for me. After my official vacation ends in January, I'll most likely still be without a home or community, so perhaps I'll visit other volunteers at their sites & complete some work exchange.

Tomorrow I will go to one of my favorite lewa's (Amy's) village to take part in some composting and sweet mangrove planting....and then pretty much I get to hang out with her in her village for about a week.

After the village expedition I'm off to the north island for some fun in the sun. I'll be travelling with Christa & Leslie to a small island off of Labasa...and then down to celebrate Christmas in Savusavu. New Years will be celebrated with my mom :) on the coral coast near Sigatoka.

For now I'm just enjoying what will be about 2 months of down time, and exploring the hidden crevices of this beautiful island. Pictures are sure to follow the next few weeks, so stay posted!
