Pre-dep! – alexambia
https://alexambia.wordpress.com/2015/05/24/pre-dep
Alex goes to zambia. May 24, 2015. May 25, 2015. I spent the last week in Toronto, doing pre-departure training with the 23 other Junior Fellows from EWB university chapters across Canada. The house was small and there were a lot of us, but we kept ourselves busy:. One key take away from pre-dep is that the JF gang is a great group, and it will be super valuable to keep up with their placements and learn from their experiences. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Over the past four months, I attended EWB’s national conference, met 23 other JFs from across Canada, and applied and interviewed for specific placements. I spent a week in Toronto sharing a very small house and two bathrooms with those 23 other JFs, and. Wish I had se...

May 31, 2015. May 31, 2015. Mr Lungu himself with one of his two tractors. Through a megaphone.
