Gamarjoba!

So I’ve been in Georgia for 3 days now. Mostly it’s been just orientation meetings and just a tiny bit of language practice.. which has been tough. What I’ve seen of Georgia.. jut outside the capital in a small village hotel is tranquil hilly beauty, the landscape isn’t striking but peaceful. I can’t wait to see more. My volunteer group, the G10s’ will be placed on the West Coast of Georgia, warmer weather but more rain. P.S. It’s pretty cold here now, I’ve got on a light coat, my winter boots (really my all the time boots) and gloves for nighttime outside…no jokes.

I met some super cool peeps and I am thankful I’ve found some people I truly vibe with, looking forward to learning more about everyone in the next few weeks. I hope some of my new buddies make it into my volunteer cluster group!

Today, Saturday, we will all be heading off to our individual host families to live in villages. I’ll be studying the language culture and how to teach TEFL for the next 10 weeks in cluster groups of 5 volunteers that live in or around my village. I haven’t meet my family yet, that nonsense is about to go down in like 10 hours. I am super excited, nervous and READY!

Wish me luck

Ciao,

Laura
