I will just give you a short brief on where we work and live and the situation in general.
The organization that we work for is On The Move, which is an NGO that provides supportive programs for youth in the age-range 16-28 ish. On the Move is an umbrella organization with different sub-projects. One of them is called V.O.I.C.E.S. which is a project that supports kids that are coming out of foster-care homes and needs a safe place where they can get guidance on education, jobs, healthcare, etc, and this is where Rene and I primarily will be working, since they are beginning to expand this part of the organization to other cities. So far we are still in the start up phase, meaning that the tasks that we are working on are smaller assignments that changes from day to day, but we are hoping to get more meat on the bone soon.
Our living situation so far has been quite exiting, since we have been living with different people that are connected to the organization someway or the other. So we have met a lot of different people, amongst other Miki and Lance that you see on our second posted video. Until now we have been living mostly in Napa, but we are leaving Napa for San Francisco to spend the weekend, and to look for an apartment where we can stay until December 20th.
The American culture has been incredibly open towards us, which has made it very easy for us to get settled, and get into the mindset of the people that lives here.
