Pictures

Here are some pictures that I tried to upload before I left for my island but the internet was not cooperating. They are picutes from during training and our swearing in ceremony. Enjoy! =)

Susana and Ana - two girls from my village in Tu'anekivale

The boys from my village in Tu'anekivale. They were really excited to have their picutes taken while they were jumping. Right after they jumped in the water they would come running to me to see the picture.

My first homestay family in Tu'anekivale. This is about half of the family...everyone else was at work.

The children from the family. Just a bunch of cute little energetic kids!


At my host family's stores before they took me to the airport.

Ana and Me. She is the little girl who would just walk with me no matter where I was heading to in Tu'anekivale. She was always very quite but always smiling. =D

Ha'ano - staying with Grant (another volunteer) for a week during training. This is his view from his house.

My second homestay family: Kei and To'a (both wearing black). Another volunteer and her host mom.

All the girls of Group 74 at Swearing in. We all had our traditional formal clothes on that our hostfamilies made us at some point in our training. The swearing in ceremony was at a beautiful resort west side of Tongatapu.
