Life in Namaacha is very good. As you can see it is beautiful and I am living a very interesting life. Monday through Friday we have Portuguese class and lectures on Peace Corps related material (e.g. teaching, health, technology in Mozambique). Today, we cooked American food for our host mothers. We made onion rings and grilled cheese sandwiches with tomatoes, onions, and lettuce. We wanted to make cheese burgers but were not able to purchase ground beef in Namaacha. Last week, we made a local dish with our mother's that was much better.
