And the Winner Is...

I just got my assignment for Peace Corps AND...it will be 2 years in Vanuatu [vɑ-nuˈ-ɑ-tu]. Googling to commence :)

My program is "Strengthening Human Resources through Education Project" and my job title is Business Advising in the Rural Training Centers. Yep, rural. I didn't expect urban but I was hoping that it could entail improving tourism on a small island, starting up a surf store on the beach or something...ha. Essentially, I'll be teaching and training in a small village.

Orientation Sept 17-19 in the US and then off to Vanuatu for pre-service training Sept 20-Nov 30. Service dates Dec 08-Dec 2010.

Now to accept the invitation and begin reading through the details...
