The Party Corps?


I had breakfast with Valarie, my friend and the former Operation's Manager of the DU Bookstore, last Sunday.  Valarie's daughter Cheyanne is a Peace Corps volunteer in Mozambique, and teaches future teachers at a college campus in the town of Homoine.  Cheyanne just loves Mozambique, and told her mother she thinks it is the most beautiful place on earth.  Make no mistake, these volunteers are doing great things in Mozambique, but Valarie has noted that Cheyanne and her fellow Peace Corps volunteers seem to spend every weekend at the beach and often travel to such fascinating places as Ilha de Mocambique (a World Heritage Site) and the former Portuguese beach resort of Angoche (see photo above of Cheyanne, on the right, with fellow volunteer Anneke).  Valarie has nicknamed them the "Party Corps."  Where do I sign up?  Check out Cheyanne's Blog and some wonderful photographs of Mozambique at www.timeinmozambique.blogspot.com.
