On the Move

With my stuff safely packed into garbage bags, which are currently littering my hall, it seemed like a good time to update about the changes I have faced, and seem to be continuing to face through the duration my Peace Corps service. While Peace Corps volunteers are all versed on the importance of being flexible, I think the buzz word that best sums up my personal experience over the past year and a few months is mobile. Tomorrow marks my fourth move since I began my Peace Corps Journey. The first move of course being from the USA to Romania. The second being from My training site to a small Village in Maramures, in the far North West of Romania, after that came my more dramatic move from Maramures to Dumbolvita, Moreni, an old oil town in the South of the Country, not far from my original training site, and finally my move tomorrow, in which I will find myself in a smaller apartment, but still in Moreni. Even when I am not moving my life around I am likely still on the move. In the past few weeks I have worked at a camp in the East of the country then back home for a wedding and after that straight to a vacation to the Black sea, then to the center of the country for my second year of Ocland English camp in Hargita county. I'm not nearly done. As soon as I can pile all of my earthly belongings at my school I will be heading back up North to Maramures where I will be a reader in a Romanian reading of "The Vagina Monologues" after which I will be facilitating a week long GLOW (Girls Leading our World) camp that I have organized along with my friend Diana. This summer is moving along as quickly as I am. No doubt that my second year of teaching will find me before I know it.
