Yes, we are here, we are learning, we are living a very new & different life. Training,Peace Corps Jamaica style, is professionally presented in all the newest educational and business management approaches and forms. We have been given dynamic instructive professional music performances, interactive talks by Security from the Embassy plus many Peace Corps staff members, welcomes by the Ambassador, and open arms of our host families who will proceed to care for us and teach us the language and culture for 2 weeks, while we attend more classes.
Life in Jamaica is not easy even for those who have homes and education..it is incredibly difficult for those we will end up helping in September at our permanent sites.
I really feel I am one but one small voice in a land of huge hopeful dreams, where endless help is needed. It's hard to believe that all those luxurious resorts ring the island's beaches...we have barely even seen the blue Caribbean Sea.
Onward in learning and growing. Peace is a far distant goal, while site-specific help may be possible.
