Pohnpei, Pictorally

A few snapshots of life here in Pohnpei! This week marks the first full week of school. I'm really excited to get into a routine and learn the ins and outs of working here. It's been quite the journey so far, and I'm excited to get more settled and adjusted!

Local Catholic church, right across from Pohnpei Catholic School (PCS)

Walking through the jungle to get to the J-house (Jesuit House)

The wonderful J-house!

Fried ice cream for dessert at the staff lunch on the first day of school!

So much green. So much sun. All the time.

Andddd after cleaning and decorating!

I am alive, having survived a gnarly stomach bug over the weekend. Ready to take on this week of school!
