The Honest Truth?


My ILP duration is 97 days, and I have already completed 45. This finally means I am on the down hill for teaching, but not going home quite yet. When did that happen? But more frequently I also think.. is that all? Really? 

We lost our first teacher yesterday, she just packed up and went home $2500 later. Sadly I think we all silently watched her leave with envy in our hearts. If you asked any one of the teachers in Kiev right now if they enjoyed teaching I honestly believe they would tell you that they don't, and they might actually tell you that they hate it. Now I might be getting ahead of myself here. We are all just fine doing what we are doing. We all chose to be here, we all paid to be here as volunteers, but at the same time I don't think any of us had any idea what we were getting ourselves into. 
They tell you it will be hard, but you can't imagine it all when you are in training-- and even when they tell you some, you have no idea until you actually experience it. 

Everything is fine for all of us. But we will all miss you Brittani!
