While in our local boutique/store, I noticed this guy's hat. Small world, he's been to Spokane too!
Apparently he bought this hat in Abuja, Nigeria. Does he know Spokane is NOT in Nigeria?
Regardless, I got a taste of home today.

Sending Us Mail
Say you want to send more than an email. So you ask yourself "Self, how do I send Jaren and Steve something?"
SCHWARTZ, Stephen and/or TICHY, Jaren*
Corps de la Paix/ Peace Corps B.P. 46 Tchaourou, Benin Benin L'Afrique d'Ouest/ West Africa
Make sure your postal agent knows Benin is a country IN West Africa and that the envelope is being sent to BENIN. One would think this goes without saying, but some of our mail has been going to Thailand and Afghanastan.
It is recommended that you send padded envelopes in lieu of boxes -- they the customs fees are lower and they seem to make it more often. Don't forget to write "Par Avion" as well.
*In all official Peace Corps records, Jaren remains a TICHY. Letters to Jaren Schwartz will likely not be delivered.
