Ok I would first like to apologize for having such a negative last message. Yes I do miss all those things a ton but they will alaways be there in the states and I will always have that to go back to and I recognize that and I really do appreciate the time that I have here.
For example I just spent a few days training to be a camp counselor which I will do next week and I am leading a bunk with one of my best friends and we get to sing and dance and she and I are teaching art classes every day and doing crafts instead of sports and it is going to be super fun and Ill get to practice my french and make new friends and all that good stuff. Then soon Mom and Dad will be here and the new stage of like 30 friends (although I hear that they are almost all girls again...story of my life eh...but I gave up on that whole finding your soul mate in the Peace Corps nonsense long ago - I've always got Gash). So that rules. In conclusion I am a happy person so dont you fret. However that doesn't mean that I wouldn't still appreciate letters and/or packages from you

Not much else is new. My plan is to take tons of pics when the rents arrive and I shall post those badboys soon.
In conclusion I love you all.

Tami,

My name is Olivier Asselin, I'm a Canadian photojournalist currently living in Accra, Ghana. I'm looking for information about an upcoming festival in northern Togo (Kara) that involved traditional wrestling (evala). I'm planning on traveling to Togo to photograph the event and was wondering if yourself or someone you know might be able to tell me when exactly is the festival taking place - I know it's in July.

I don't have your email address so hopefully you'll read this comment. I'm contacting you because I know PC volunteers are usually well informed on what's going in their assignment country.

Thanks in advance you for your help!

Cheers,
