PCT’s going to Africa?

September 15th, 2005 by JasonSears.

I’m getting an early start on forming a contact network as I prepare to leave for Namibia in November. I’ll be teaching computers and providing IT support in southern Namibia.

    Are you part of the Peace Corps 2 Yahoo group? There are a few people going to Namibia in November in the group.

    I’m off to the Philippines in March - ICT Resource Teacher.
    Looking forward to it already (its getting cold here!).

    We should start an IT related PCV forum somewhere.

    Hi there,
    I am currently in the process of applying to the Peace Corps. I am very excited about the possibility of serving, however, have some safety concerns. If you have the time, I would greatly appreciate any insights you provide into the issue. Do you feel safe where you serve? Do you have a support network from the program, local community members and/or other volunteers in the area? Again, any advice or concerns shared would be greatly appreciated. Please take care and I hope to hear from you.

    Sincerely,
    Robyn

    Hello,
    I received my invitation about a week ago and will be going to Namibia in November to teach science. Emotions have been running high but I’m settling into the idea and getting progressively more excited about the prospect.

    I’m also going to Southern Nambia in November, and I’d love to start an email list, or for someone to message me about the Peace Corps 2 Yahoo group?
