Hey, hey!
You want to know what's INCREDIBLY hard to believe? I have already surpassed the halfway point of my time in Bangladesh. I know. Time has flown. I'm coming up on the 5 month mark, which means I have approximately 4 months left (though my specific leaving date is totally liquid at this point and depends entirely on how much money I have left as we round the corner into late fall…).
Ummm… SO MUCH has happened in the last 4 months in Matlab. Let me catch you up:
I attended a celebration of the Bengali New Year, sweated like crazy, and looked stunning in this green headband (which totally ruined my hairdo).

Ripa and I completed the first round of interviews, which was a HUGE success for the project.
Ok. More accurately, Ripa completed the interviews. I spent as much time as possible listening and engaging in the interviews, but really I spend a lot of time entertaining the kids so that Ripa can interview in peace. Whatever works.
(The selfie has really taken off.)
Ripa and I moved into our own apartment. (please excuse the terrible picture quality and my messy room)

I also went to Nepal for a long weekend with two friends. It was a glorious and much-needed break.
So, anyway, as you can see, I've been keeping busy. And healthy. Well, "healthy" is actually the Bangladeshi way of saying I've gained weight. But, I am American version of healthy, too, and the "Katie" version of happy. I can't believe how fast the first half+ has flown by and I can only imagine the next 4-ish months will go even faster.
Catch you all on the flip side (of what, I don't know). Take care of yourselves!
