3 months

After spending 3 months at my site without seeing another American, I came to Ashgabat a couple days ago and have been enjoying little luxuries like running water 24/7 and furniture. The schools all have this week off, so a lot of the TEFL volunteers are in town, and it's been great talking to everyone about their sites and students, both complaining about kids who won't participate in lessons and discussing ways to make the schools better. It's also nice just to hang out with friends and be normal.
