Bike Tour Video

Hey all. Here is a video depicting our experience on the bike tour. Enjoy!

Bike Tour Mania! Plus Extension News

This year I was able to organize the ONLY bike tour taking place in Benin. We biked hundreds of kms to spread knowledge (and tee-shirts) to ten rural villages in the Borgou/Atakora. Overall, over 2,000 individuals were taught about the benefits of family planning. What's family planning, you ask? It's as easy as it sounds. 

Step 1: Have a plan! How many kids would you like to have? Plan to make sure there are at least two years in between pregnancies so you have enough money (and energy) to ensure that they are provided for. 
Step 2: Make sure you don't get pregnant when you don't want to be. Most of each information session was taken up by sharing information about various methods to prevent unwanted pregnancies. 

Simple enough! Anyway, this went off really well this year. Check my facebook account for more photos since this is taking way too long. 

Extension : I'll be staying on a 3rd year to serve as the Food Security Coordinator for Peace Corps Benin. I'll be moving to the capital city and working in the actual Peace Corps Bureau. See you all during the holiday season when I finally head back stateside!
