I made this blog to let you know what's going on with me in Albania!

Random!




Hello! Amazingly enough, there is actually a jazz club in Tirana! We went one night, and it was really fun! The band was very talented, and it was definitely something different from the norm! It's not for the early-to-bed people, starts at 11:00, but it's worth it! I've attached some pics from that.


Red Nose Day was Friday, March 16th, and we celebrated at my school. I'm sure you all are thinking, WHAT IS THAT??? I had that same thought up until a few weeks ago! It's a day that raises money for the charity, Comic Relief, who in turn gives money to children in poor countries. This year the money went to children in Africa. The theme was "big", so the red noses that we wore were big, and we had dress up contents among the teachers and students in big costumes! I was an elephant, and no, I didn't gain massive amounts of weight....I stuff myself with padding to be even bigger! I did end up winning 3rd place, not bad!! The day was a lot of fun, but definitely exhausting! We had classes in the morning, and in the afternoon we had a lot of different games and BIG activities! Can you believe my class had a difficult time taking me seriously when I was teaching like that?? Crazy!


Hope you are all doing well! Would love to hear from you!

Until next time!
