USAID Translation Projects Loom Ahead

Hi all,
Happy to report my job search is going swimmingly, and that besides landing a volunteer gig at GTZ (http://www.gtz.de/en) where I'll have an office and internet connection of my own three days a week starting tomorrow, I'll be doing translation of USAID documents part-time. I've been applying for teaching positions, too, and continue to hope for a minor miracle and great opportunity at the US Embassy, but for the time being am pleased to be able to work from home and continue learning about the local context. GTZ is a few blocks' walk (uphill) and a super group of people, so besides befriending others in the NGO world here it should be a fun and fulfilling stint til something more lucrative can be identified. I'm meeting with some folks at Save the Children tomorrow afternoon, too, so should know more soon about a potential role assisting a study of iron supplements on children's attention. Hope you're all well and happy and more to come as Carnival approaches (and water fights begin in earnest!!)
