Candid Cameroon: Picture

Picture

A statue representation of Cameroon's 10 regions. I'll be living in the West which, illogically, is not the western-most province and thus, not coastal.

The crowds in the capital city of Yaounde during my first week in Cameroon. I apologize for the photo quality being grainy but it was taken from a moving vehicle.

(Sorry, it takes a bit of time to load each picture. I'll try for more soon...)

Letters and packages should be sent to:

Charmayne Cooley

B.P. 979

Bafoussam, Cameroon

Postal suggestions:

*Write PAR AVION/AIR MAIL on envelopes.

*Number letters so that I can determine whether any do not arrive.

*Packages should be sent via air mail (not surface mail) using a flat-rate USPS box - the smallest size costs $13 to send to Cameroon.

*Do not send anything of significant value for fear of damage or theft along the way. Theft is less common if you mark the packages in red ink, put religious symbols on the outside (draw crosses, “Jesus fishes”, Bible verses), and/or address it to ‘Soeur/Sister Charmayne Cooley.’

*Packages take approximately 1 month to arrive. Anecdotal evidence also suggests that insuring it - no matter the contents - also increases the likelihood of arrival.
