New Info on Training

Well, as reticent as the Peace Corps seems to be on divulging information, I have finally gleamed some information on my Training schedule while in Jordan. After arriving in the capital on Sunday (or Monday morning early) my Peace Corps class will be bused to Irbid, the second largest city, and located in the fertile north of the country, where we will spend three days in a hotel. Following this, each Volunteer will be assigned to his or her host family, residing in a village outside of the city, but near-by nevertheless. Five of my days every week will be spent in the village, learning the tasks and specifications of my assignment - I imagine this will also involve shadowing someone in my position - with the remaining two days elapsing in the city of Irbid itself. The training period consists of six days a week of training, so I am really unsure exactly where the one day of rest per week is spent, but I suppose I will know soon enough. I am getting quite excited and rather restive in Florida.
