The Land of Mines...

25 Oct. 2010

“You better watch out, you better not cry. You better be good, I’m telling you why. Landmines are in Mozambique.”

Okay, maybe this blog is going to make you worry about me more, but DON’T! Yes, there are still some landmines leftover from the civil war (that ended in 1987 I believe). These landmines are marked, and I mostly only travel on used paths…plus, Peace Corps has made it a point not to put us in a place that has landmines.

So, basically, this blog might be counterproductive about ensuring you all about my safety, but I wouldn’t be joking about it like this if I felt unsafe. I guess I’m figuring you might have heard or read about the civil war and landmines in Mozambique, so I needed to address the matter. I would say walkng in Gary, Indiana is probably more dangerous….
