So, I have now been in Namibia for almost a week. We have been doing some country specific training and have gotten to know more about SCORE Namibia and what we will be doing here. We have little time off so I have not been able to update the blog as much as I wanted to, and it will be exciting to see how the Internet will work where I am placed.
This morning we were told what community we will be placed in. The decision is based on our skills and strengths, and what is needed in the community and also the host family situation. I will be placed in Rundu. This is a relatively big place way up north i Namibia just on the border to Angola. There is a river that defines the border to Angola, and there is a beach there I have heard. There is not too much I know about the place other than that they are big sports fans and the kids like to do sports. I will be living in a family that consist of mother, son (7 yrs) and a dog. I hear from the former volunteer that it is a really good place to be and the house is nice.
Next time I write I will try to include some pictures :)

Høres veldig spennende ut, du er så tøff! Bra du har hørt litt om familien på forhånd. Det må være betryggende å vite at andre har hatt det bra der før. Håper du får grei tilgang til internett videre og også får lastet opp bilder:) klem Mari
