Here's a quick recap on the last two (shame, shame) months:
Thanksgiving was awesome. The UB volunteers (and a few former volunteers) got together, I made turkey, gravy & stuffing and everyone else brought a dish to share. It was a really great day.
Absolutely loving my PCVL work. It's been so great being in the office, getting to know our staff better and working closely with them to impact the PC/M program. We've got lots of outreach and support projects going in addition to the usual, every day work. So grateful for this experience.
The situation with my HCA, the UNFPA Youth Development Center (YDC), isn't going exactly as planned. We've identified a site (it had to be moved out to the ger district) and I've got a counterpart, but the program planning has really stalled out. I've got a couple other projects in the works, including a volunteerism seminar with Koty (who's also doing the YDC project), which has a lot of really great potential.
Last week I was at the M24s' IST, facilitating sessions and supporting the trainers & staff. Below are a few photos from the training:
Me with Ariunaa, a teacher at Dornod PolyTech
Me with Tumee, a teacher at C-town School 2 and one of my former TOFEL participants

The amazing sunsets...Unfortunately at like 5pm :(
The hotel. Same one my COS conference was at.
And here are a few pictures from around UB, where it actually looks like the holidays!
