Hello! I know it’s been a while since I’ve written; getting to a computer that has somewhat good connection here in Meknes has proven a little difficult. No worries. Things are going well, I’m in my second homestay and I really like the family: I have a brother (29), two sisters (20 and 30), a cousin (6), and a mom and a dad. Their appartment is far from my taining site, so I have to take two grand taxis. Grand taxis are great!! They are these 1970’s / 1980’s Mercedes Benz taxis that stuff 4 people in the back and 2 people in the front, plus the driver. They usually have specific routes, so I get to be crammed in a Benz with new Moroccans every day! It truly is a fun experience.
In the morning we have four hours of language and in the afternoon we usually do something related to the artisans. Today, for example, we are going to observe some artisans at the ensemble before we attack them tomorrow with our questionnaire. All in all, training is going well, I’m just ready to go to my final site, which I should find out by the very end of this month. I hope that everyone is doing well. Take care.
