The Gambia Through My Eyes. We must learn to see the world anew. - Albert Einstein. Saturday, April 20, 2013. Travels, goats and cheese. As most of you know I left The Gambia in March, which was quite a difficult transition. Anyway. I spent a week in Barcelona going through a 'slight' culture shock. I found Barcelona beautiful but very touristy and not much interesting (blaming the same shock and transition:) . Here are some pictures: https:/ www.blogger.com/blogger.g?

My Peace Corps Experience in The Gambia. Why the Peace Corps? Sunday, March 10, 2013. World Read Aloud Day. Was World Read Aloud Day. I’ve been reading non-stop with my teachers, so this day couldn’t have come at a better time. It was a great way to start transferring the knowledge the teachers have been receiving to the students. For many teachers, it was the first time they had read a children’s book aloud to their class. Unfortunately, there is not a reading curriculum in The Gambia. Then he wants a h...

The Gambia Through My Eyes. We must learn to see the world anew. - Albert Einstein. Tuesday, October 4, 2011. I like the rainy season here because of that. It also takes away a heat and makes the weather more bearable and the vegetation is abundant. However, it is a mother of molding. First time I saw my palm bed covered in green, yellow, and white mold I was shocked. I was not able to escape this experience. Yes! I have been using a lot phrase ‘Inshallah! My Mandinka language skills are improving! Well,...

http://lacyszuwalski.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
My Peace Corps Experience in The Gambia. Why the Peace Corps? Wednesday, September 11, 2013. People often ask me how I’ve changed since I’ve returned from my Peace Corps service.

The one that encouraged me to write follows:. The Washington News reported that the bikers organized t...
