First days...

We are launching a blog, so that it can serve as a platform for us to share our experiences with future interns, our friends and family, and the general public. This will catalog our reflections about the projects that we are working on and on life in Dar es Salaam. I hope that you all enjoy this brief glimpse into our work and our lives here!

I've just begun to develop a new information packet for arriving international interns, please feel free to add any useful information. I am at a bit of a loss on the costs of some items (it's only my second day in Dar) but I'm sure the other interns can help to contribute:

Also, the application has been restructured a bit. Comments/edits are welcome on that as well:
