This past weekend we had a party for the Tamba region "COSers" – volunteers who have finished their two years and reached their Close of Service. In just a few days or weeks (depending on the individual volunteer's scheduling) they will be hopping on a place and going back to "Amerik", as we call it here.
This group includes my closest volunteer neighbor, Dado. In about a month and a half a new volunteer will arrive to take her place in her village, and I will suddenly become the older, wiser volunteer, rather than one of the "babies".
It's weird to have so many volunteers going home to America and not be one of them. But hopefully my second year in Senegal will be even better than the first.
