Another Week!

Hello again! I hope all is well with everyone on the flip side. I'm just moving through another week here. My counterpart, Chinara, is on vacation right now. Therefore I've been working a lot with my pseudo counterpart, Vicka (who's son I just began tutoring last week). We've got a few projects in the works. One will occur this winter with a group of seminars occurring in local universities and a nearby village. These seminars will focus on educating men and women on issues centered around domestic violence and will also convey the services we provide at Sezim. The other project will be a bigger ordeal, and that is finding funding for future expenses at Sezim after next year.
Aside from the work at Sezim, I am also picking up classes at the school where the kid I tutor goes to class. Tomorrow afternoon I'll find out for sure what these classes consist of and whether or not I want to pursue them.
This weekend, I'm headed to my friend Charlie's village for a night of guesting followed by a day possibly at the hot springs. The hot springs sounds like a good idea, but only if the weather is much cooler up in the mountains where they are located. Otherwise, no thank you. There's no need to get in hot water when the weather is hot enough on it's own.

Alright, I'm off to run around Bishkek some more, just wanted to touch base!

I love you and miss you all!
