“Asé pléwé, an nou lité.”
The Prime Minister of Dominica used the Kwéyól saying for “Enough crying, let's get on with it” in a press briefing last week. He wanted to tell the people to be strong and help others. I am ready to do that. Peace Corps continues to look at the island as a whole and our sites individually - schools and homes. They will reach a decision with Washington and inform evacuated volunteers by Nov 10 th , as mentioned in previous posts. We will have up to three options: return to service in Dominica, serve on a different island, or end service. I want to remain a Peace Corps volunteer so I hope to get more than just the last option. A short video of part of my normal ride down from Tete Morne to Roseau. I've seen pictures and I've read stories about Dominica in the weeks since Maria. Some are hopeful, some not so much. Life is getting better, but still difficult for many on the island and it will continue to be that way for some months ah...
