For those of you who are now part of group 27 who got the address to this blog from information given to you by Peace Corps please check this blogs achieves for posts from my own PST. I gave advice about PST then. The best advice can give you now is don’t over pack, electronic reading devices are a good investment, bring along one or more long lighters that you use to light fire places and barbeques and beware of dogs. Also a little computer advice get the best anti virus you can find, never plug external devices into your computer that you has been plugged anywhere else. This includes Peace Corps computers.

I might have improved if one I tried more after I got to site and two if my school was not Hungarian and I did not find out that my school not my site would be Hungarian until the last minuet. Please check archives for information on my site change and why unless there is a medical problem or security problem as in my case you do not want to do this. I love my site and would not change anything now but it is a pain to change sites and Peace Corps will not do it unless there is a very good reason.
