What a view!
This is the view out my kitchen sink/window...every day when I brush my teeth, I look at these mountains and rice fields and feel blessed.

Kitchen
And this is the kitchen sink/window. Looks a bit different now as I have moved some things around. But here is where I store my veg, cook, and brush my teeth.

Parasy
This is the damage of my infamous fleas...just wanted you to get an idea how miserable they can be. I even considered wearing a flea collar!

My Mpanentana
Dalety, the mpanentana fahasalamana in Tsarazaza and I on a hike. She's basically the 'Gasy version of my job. She's amazing and I'd be lost without her.

I am sorry you are being harassed by the fleas. I have heard they are a plague there. I don't think rachel has been inundated by them yet. Hope that you can overcome all the challenges.

Do you know Tara Stohler? I think she was in your group......she is a friend of mine from the states. I too was a PCV Niger, Tara came to visit me while I was there. Good luck with everything!!! Darren
