I arrived in Washington, DC yesterday at 10am after catching the red-eye from Portland. I haven’t been able to do any touring but from what I’ve seen on the commute to Dupont Circle, its an exciting city, filled with a lot of young, professional, important-looking people.
Since I arrived I’ve been working with The Advocacy Project going over expectations, work plans, safety issues, as well as all kinds of tech-y things I should already know, like how to edit video, take a proper picture, and update a simple website. I’ve also met all the interns here that will be helping me with any technical issues I may have while in Ain Leuh.
You can check out my official AP blog, but I’ll probably post everything I post there on this site.
I hope to start working with the cooperative on Monday the 18th. I leave tomorrow at 2:00pm and will head straight to Fez for friday cous cous with my dear friend Zahra!
It would be great if you could pick up the basics of Tam/ Tash while in Ain Leuh… I have no idea how feasible that would be… taraq slama! (wa mbruk 3la lmawqa3 zwiyna!)
