It's official, we are heading to Mozambique as education volunteers September 28, 2009. It has been awhile since we've been on this page. We've been in India - you might have heard about our adventures on our other blog (arribaslayton.blogspot.com) which we've discontinued for the moment. This will now be your best way to monitor our foreign service.
We are currently filling out our passport and visa applications and learning Portuguese as best we can. Janet will be teaching Biology in a high school in Portuguese and Luc will be training Mozambiquan English teachers. We are still learning about this country because it wasn't really on our radars already. So far we know it has really sweet beaches, a developing game park and a lot of foreign investment in their burgeoning economy after 2 decades of civil war following independence. It's also extremely hot, with winter lows dropping to a mere 75 degrees F. Start making your plans to visit us now (you can combo it with South Africa, World Cup 2010).
So in the mean time, we're hanging out in LA this summer, planning and getting excited. We will make more posts as we near the big day, but we won't start in earnest until we get in country, where things will really get interesting. Stay tuned!
