Village Placements

At last, I have village placements for you all. Sorry this has taken so long.

A quick preface: I tried as best as I could to accommodate all your preferences, but with 8 of you requesting to work at the camp, it was tough. Some of you, you will notice, have the luxury of dividing your time between Croatia and Romania while others have the privileged of experiences two different villages in Romania (note the positive connotation of luxury and privilege). Those who will spend two sessions in Romania need not despair; I assure you your experiences will not be redundant and will in fact allow you to deepen your understanding of Romanian culture.

In the past, we haven't been able to give volunteers information about their villages so early. So on the one hand, you all have a head start. Nevertheless, I regret that I can't provide you with more information about your villages/families at this point. Kinga has generously collected basic information about many of the host families (she's still trying to get info about the rest). Those of you assigned to a host family for which we have information, I will email it to you. The rest of you-be patient. Hopefully, we'll be able to collect some more info in the coming weeks.

I think it'd be nice to send the families some info about us as well. By Tuesday the 27, email me a brief introduction about yourself, which we'll translate and send to your families. Keep them brief, though, so we don't overload our translators.

I welcome you all to post questions or concerns here. We have many people on this blog eager to address them. You can also always email me directly. Hope you're all well. More info to come in the upcoming weeks.
