Happy Father's Day and Site Announcements

Happy Father's Day to all the great father's that are checking this blog! And a special greeting to Chris Zorn on his first Dad's Day! Congratulations!

We have some good news of our own. We found out today where we will be stationed for our two years in Peace Corps service. We will be living in Suva. It is the capital of Fiji, so if you look at a map of the world, it's very likely that Suva will be the first city in Fiji you see. It's on the south western corner of the biggest Island, Viti Levu. It's very exciting for us to finally know where we're going. And our jobs, you ask? Well, Nan will be working with the Ministry of Health working to better utilize a community center for youth. They have a structure but no programs working so Nan will be designing programs that will hopefully be in place for years and years to come. It's very exciting work and Nan is looking forward to the challenge. I, on the other hand, will be working with the international organization, Save the Children. They have some national campaigns that they will be implementing from Suva and I will be working on developing those programs some how. It's all good work and I look forward to working there.

Anyway, I just wanted to hop on and let everyone know what we're up to here. Thanks for reading, everyone!

Chris and Nan

  1. It appears that Fiji is only 1 hour off GMT....seems odd.

    Hope you two are having a good time there.

    Looks terrific!
