Kelsey in Bandjoun

Kelsey in Bandjoun...

Kelsey's Mom here...She wanted me to post a note to say that she is now in Bandjoun. She will probably be able to update this site on Saturday when she goes to Bafoussam. I have been getting bits and pieces of information and hope everything is correct. She is living with a family of eight. It is a husband and wife, four children ages 2-14, the husbands brother, and 18 year old sister. The grandpa and grandma live close by. Kelsey has her own room, bed with mosquito net, toilet, and somewhat of a shower, a spigot with a drain. Her family keeps the house extremely clean...The mother even taught Kelsey how to scrub the floors and do her laundry...which she said was the hardest thing she ever did...All by hand. She thinks that the father has something to do with lumber trading and that the mother is a nurse. She lives about a 5 minute walk from where she does her training and has other PCV's in training close by. So far, three other trainees have gone home. She is not loving the food yet...Her telephone works well there...So give her a call. I am sure she will have a nice LONG update on Saturday. Later! Sue
