No news is good news.

The hours are counting down to our overnight flight to Paris, concluding our short time here in Philadelphia. We just proudly engulfed a last Philly Cheese Steak. The new Peace Corps crew for Togo runs thirty-one deep, all bright and brimming young men and women. There’s a great representation of strengths and diversity within our group; engineers, future doctors, lawyers, etc. We could certainly see our fellow peeps here becoming good friends for many years to come. Admittedly, it has been a great relief to share our stories of anxiety and excitement with our training group. Thus far, we’ve been extremely pleased with the conducive environment for learning set up at our Pre-Stage Training.

In short, everything is peachy. For now, we’re off to the Homeland. Here is our address for the next months.

Trace and Katrina McKellips, PCV

So long,
