Hey Kids!
Well, it's about that time. I leave Los Angeles tonight to spend a couple days in South Carolina with my dad, and then I will begin my trip out to Mozambique. I am BEYOND ready for this journey and excited for what lays ahead. Because many have been asking, those of you who wish to send letters or care packages, I can be reached at:
Zachery Scott, PCT (After my training, it will be PCV)
Corpo Da Paz/U.S. Peace Corps
C.P. 4398
Maputo
Mozambique
A few words to the wise...The mail service in Mozambique is not as efficient as the U.S. Postal Service; thus, it is important to be patient. If you plan on sending a package, You may want to try to send inexpensive items through the mail, but there is no guarantee that these items will arrive. They do not recommend, however, that costly items be sent through the mail. It is also recommended that packages be sent in padded envelopes if possible, as boxes tend to be taxed more frequently.
The first three months of my training will keep me busy and I probably will not be able to update this blog as much as I would like to. If you don't hear from me, don't worry. My modes of communication will broaden as I get the hang of my environment, so just be patient.
I cannot thank my family and friends enough for all the support they have given me. I never thought I would be as eager to take this journey as I am today, and it's because of the support I have received. I look forward to keeping in touch with you all, and seeing a couple of you who are coming out to visit. Have to finishing packing now, but will hopefully update this blog soon. Until next time...
Be well, do good work, and keep in touch.

I envy you, rambling man.
I don’t know how I’m gonna tell you,
I can’t play with you no more,
I don’t know how I’m gonna do what mama told me,
My friend, the boy next door.
I can’t believe what people saying,
You’re gonna let your hair hang down,
I’m satisfied to sit here working all day long,
You’re on the darker side of town.
And when I’m out I see you walking,
Why don’t your eyes see me?
Could it be you’ve found another game to play
What did mama say to me.
