Just a quick note to let you know that I've arrived safely in Moldova and things are going great. There was a slight... OK, major SNAFU with our bags in Istanbul. Instead of resting in a comfortable bed at the airport hotel we were scrambling to buy a Turkish visa so we could get our bags (which were stuck in baggage claim because they were only checked through to Turkey), then re-check-in and go through security with all of our luggage in order to get it to Moldova. Somehow we made it. Welcome to the Peace Corps, eh?
I meet my host family tomorrow and will try to post some pictures when the office isn't crowded with all the new volunteers trying to email their friends and families messages just like this one.
