Pre-Departure Email

Dear People That I Love,

As you all know, I am leaving for Tanzania tomorrow. I am, as
expected, wildly excited and nervous.

I will be sending out periodic emails (figure every 3 weeks or so?) to
you all to give you updates on my adventures. I know some people hate
these mass emails, so just let me know if you would like me to take
you off the list, I won't be insulted.

Also, I made a WEBSITE to post pictures, and also include these emails
in the form of a blog. I'm likely include more info (like pictures and
notes about the wedding this weekend) on the website that I don't
email out. The address is: http://web.mac.com/bquint/Rachel

My plan is that if you email me, I will do my best to email you back
(personally). Also, here is my mailing address. A letter from the US
costs about $1.50 and takes about 12 days to arrive. Packages will
probably never get to me.

Brown University Exchange Students
University of Dar-es-Salaam
University Hill
P.O. Box 35008
Dar-es-Salaam,
Tanzania

I will send out my phone number when I get it.

Keep in touch!
Kwaheri!

With love,
Rachel
