Although I have not been posting about French, I've been continuing to take classes, study, and do my online work through the PC. I now am signing up for a French class this summer through Tufts University. Here's the info...
I am nervous that I'm not learning enough French quick enough, but everyone keeps reassuring me that everything will fall into place once I arrive in Togo. I don't have the best track record when it comes to learning new languages proficiently. One thing is for sure, I know more now, than ever!
The real test will not only be my use of French in Togo...but also when I return to the US and talk to all my French-speaking friends ;-)

Letters take 2-5 weeks to arrive; packages a bit longer. I believe the postage for a letter 1st class, air mail will be $.98. As for packages, be careful...the cost will quickly sky rocket. Use this to estimate the price. Flatrate boxes are $42. I promise I'll appreciate a letter just as much as lots of chocolate ;-) Make sure you send all mail by airmail and it is under 5lbs. Don't insure it...They say it's not worth it!
