Health PCTs on a field-trip to a local clinic.

The regional capital of the West, Bafoussam. Also where I do my banking...

...just a "quick" half-hour walk, 10-minute moto ride, and 45 minutes in a taxi with 7+ people and a chicken/baby/branch of plantains to get there!

Herd of cattle that passed through the center of town on swearing-in day.

Some newly official Health PCVs!!!

Moving to post

Shouldn't there be an "... or bust!" sign on that bus? :)

Contact Information

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.
