This is a link to an orphanage / refuge where Amy has spent some of her time over the past few weeks. Some very good stories indeed!

Happy Easter!
He is risen! He is risen indeed!
Happy Easter all!!! I'm having a great Easter vacation here in Fianar, the 'capital' of the south of Madagascar. The full name of the town is Fianaransoa and is known for it's beautiful terraced landscapes and vineyards.(no....I have not yet tried all the wines!) I am here with 3 other PCV's and we are setting up our summer jobs here. I will be working in a Teacher Resource Center working on teacher training and curriculum useage. I'm real excited and happy about getting to see another part of the island! Last week we had a MSC (mid-service conference) where we talked about starting projects in our towns and then about 7 of us went to a nearby national park in the town of Andasibe. We saw the famous indri indri lemurs (which are the largest of all lemurs) as well as bamboo lemurs, common brown lemurs, frogs, smakes, and chameleons! It was alot of fun and I hope to get pics uploaded soon. I am also working on a Girls Camp in my region, so if you would like more info. on that please contact me or my brother. Lots of love, Amy :)

Re: Happy Easter!
Hi there. My name in Melody. I have been looking for a site like yours to gain some info on working/volunteering in Africa. Both my partner and I are teachers in Canada. We've both taught abroad many times. We're open to various experiences in Africa; camps, orphanages, teaching, volunteering...what have you. Would you be so kind as to lead me in the right direction to find reliable information? Many thanks and Happy Easter to you.
