My new home is named Mochudi

Here is the map with everyone's placement
Mochudi is about 35 kilometers from Gaborone (Gabs) the capitol city. I am very excited about living there because I think it's a great location! Two of my language trainers are from Mochudi so keeping up my Setswana lessons should be doable. Before I get too far I want to let you all know my current address it's:
Manda Brockhagen
Private Bag 001
Mochudi, Botswana
I know that some people have asked my parents about what they might be able to send...if they were to send anything. Because I am located so close to the capitol city there's not a whole lot that I need that I can't get, but I will never say no to a few things that make me happy (other than, of course, letters, e-mails, photos, and courier pigeons). A wish list for me would be anyone that wanted to send me DVD's (any subject, but pilates and romantic comedy preferred!), any smut magazines (i.e. life in style, US Weekly, etc), any essence oils (I have a burner and love to burn all kinds of scents), and of course any good smelling lotions or antibacterial gel will not be turned away!
I don't have much time on the computer, but I will try to e-mail again sometime soon! Thank you so much everyone who has sent good thoughts, prayers, vibes, chants, etc! It's been much needed and appreciated. I have not yet found a public internet connection at my site, but I am working on making the right friends! I hope this post finds everyone happy and healthy! Lots of love!
