I realized after reading my friend Nicole's blog that I didn't have a map of Lesotho up; here one is! I will be living in Quthing, close to the borders of Qacha's Nek and South Africa.

A little recap of how the end of training is going--We had our language assessment this past weekend; everyone in our training group passed! I got intermediate middle, which I am very happy with, tons of room to improve but above the bottom. We wrapped up administrative info yesterday and today we spend most of the day shopping for things for our sites (since every site is in different condition, people needs different stuff to furnish the sites, makes repairs, etc., like the piece of wood for my pit latrine and blankets for the bed). Tomorrow we have a workshop with our Basotho supervisors (mine is the principal of the high school) and then Thursday we swear-in! The schedule has really wound down this past week or two, mostly because of the breaks for the holidays and because we're just typing up loose ends, but it's given us a chance to hang out and bond more as a group for the last time before we head out to our sites.

Hopefully I'll be able to post some more pics before I leave on Saturday!
