Decisions, Decisions

Well after the disappointment of Nigeria falling through I was offered 2 new placements.

One was in The Gambia, which is a small West African country just under the Sahara. I would have been living 'up-country' which is away from the touristy destinations and probably have been living in a mud hut with a thatched roof, no electricity or running water! The job sounded good but not sure if I could hack it!!

The other option was a placement in Malawi, in the upper region of the country. I decided to select this option - but beware there is still a possibility of the whole mud hut thing!!! I'll be a CPD facilitator basically going around lots of different schools and regions and providing in-service training to the teachers. Sounds like a good job which will I'm sure be challenging.

Oh one last thing I have to learn how to ride a motorbike!! I'll keep you up-to-date with progress of this......

Mmm Typical!

I thought I'd not have any up-dates for a while and that everything would run smoothly for the next wee while. I was wrong!

It turns out that I won't be going to Nigeria after all. I've just heard that the placement has fallen through due to lack of funding!

Anyone want a Bradt Nigeria Travel Guide going for a really good price?!!!

Oh well, at least there might be public toilets where I am going - I can live in hope....

I'll keep you informed when I know anything further about a new placement, which will hopefully be in the near future.

Perhaps I'll need to start a new blog sometime soon............
