`First shirt I saw upon entering the market yesterday. There was a whole shipment from Iowa City and surrounding area. How weird is that??? First time I ever go to the yovo market in Cotonou, where all the huge bags of salvation army clothes, etc, wind up as merchandise under little shacks on the road. The first one we came to after searching for awhile for t-shirts, and they're all from Iowa. It was too weird. Scott bought one with "Iowa City Softball" on the front, and I got this one from the Hills Bank summer reading program. What a bizarre, connected feeling.Tuesday, January 26, 2010

I'm looking for ARNETT DAMASCUS she works for peace corps in Benin Abomey area . She planned to meet me in Japan last sunday 24 january , but since 20 january I don't know nothing anymore from her . I tried to contact P.C.office in Benin ,but they said NO Arnett Damascus in Benin for Peace Corps. (that s should be no possible) even if she decided to leave Benin 15 days ago.

She was in charge as teacher and help in the hospital , she was born in Czech republic and looks asiatic due Japanese mum.
I talked with her last time 20 january and she have to meet a Pastour (old man , coming from south Africa ) living in the same area.
Her headmisstress is a woman that celebrated her son birthday in december ,after that Arnett went hospital because ate snails and was allergic

Claudio,
ReplyDeleteI don't know of anyone in Benin that goes by that name. There are a few volunteers in the Abomey area but none of them go by that name or are who you described. I will inquire about her to some sources here and see what I can do for you. I'm am sorry you are worried and will try to help, but there are no volunteers here by that name so I am not sure what I will be able to find out.
Good luck,
Kara
