1.5 months in---

I am now 1.5 months into my service in Ukraine.
There is much to tell, my universe has been completely changed as a result of being constantly pushed out of my comfort zone. However, it is for the better. Peace Corps schedule is very exhausting, but does push you to be productive with your time. My typical day involves, or should involve, work, planning, and studying for about 10 hours all but one day of the week. The language training is extremely intense.
I also have been co-teaching classes in the local school as well as observing the classes of my group here
My cluster (the 5 people that live in my town) and group 34 are great. I have some new friends that I'm sure will be lasting relationships
My "cluster" here in Oster, Ukraine consists of a 22 year-old asian woman from New York, a 23 year-old caucasian woman from Lousiana, a 23 year-old native American man from southern California, and a 24 year-old caucasian man from Florida. It's a very diverse group. Our perspectives on the experience are all very different.

I hope to post more in this blog. Please contact me if you have any questions about what I'm doing. The more specific the better.
