My crazy village kids. The little girl in the middle has dinner with me every night.
A PCV known as "Cewbaca" (yes, that's right) in Niger had a wedding ceremony in his village which is near mine... his gf from the states came up for it. This is me and steph and some other PCV's at the wedding.
This little boy kept coming up to me at the wedding. He was so cute! But it's funny, he was wearing more American looking clothes than me!
Another PCV's girls' soccer team. Go team and coach Danel! Me and Kellie went to watch the girls' soccer tournament which is held every year. Playing soccer seems to really give the girls a lot of empowerment.
A visit to G-side and Jen's Village which is an Oasis tucked away in Zinder. They have palm trees! Here we are wading through the "Hanya Ruwa."
Thanksgiving feasting and cooking! We had SO MUCH food, I think I gained about 20 pounds that day. Oh and I got suckered into helping someone (ahem, Danel and Noah) make empanadas...it took forever!!
