Hello, my name is Andrew Mello.
I have been lucky enough to be accepted into the Peace Corps, to serve as a preschool teacher in Burkina Faso- this is a true honor. To keep in touch, my aunt Dayle had the great idea for me to keep a blog (which she purchased for me)… Thanks Dayle!
I have never formally kept a blog, nor have I ever been to Africa, so you guys are lucky (or unlucky) enough to watch me fumble through both of these experiences.
I would like to thank my family, friends and those who have been in my life, who have offered their camaraderie and support; I know that I would not be where I am if it was not for these special people. My thoughts and best wishes are with you.
You can keep in touch with me by posting replies to posts, or you can send me an e-mail at apmello462@gmail.com. You can also e-mail my mother at margo.mello@umassmemorial.org- she will know of my whereabouts, even if I don’t.
Cheers, Andy
