Greetings from Atskuri!
I moved in with my host family, the Keshikashvelli's, and they are probably some of the nicest people I have ever met. The food here is rich in oils and fats, and they don't eat many vegetables. As a result, every single one of us has developed intestinal distress. I live in a village with 4 other PCV's, and our daily greeting ritual consists of the following dialog:
"Hi Scott"
"Hi John"
"So are you solid today?"
"I was yesterday, but now I'm back to the liquid state".
It's amazing how quickly I have become intimately familiar with my cluster mates.
It takes me about 40 minutes to walk to town from the house I live in, and while everyone else complains about not being able to work out, I'm finding myself quickly getting into the best shape of my life simply by existing. On the 6th I went with my brothers and sisters to the river to throw rocks into it (ie, rural weightlifting). Here is a picture of me and some of the children.
Internet is very spotty so far, but I've been told that after my pre-service training I'll be ale to have a bit more reliable service once I sign up for an internet plan.
