We are once again both cleared medically and we have completed all other requirements for our adventure with the Peace Corps. We have received our flight itinerary. We are scheduled to leave Madison early on Friday, February 23rd. We will fly to Arlington, Virginia for our staging and then leave for Kosovo on Sunday, February 25th. This is what we know so far.
The flag of Kosovo is represented below. The gold figure is the country and the six white stars represent the six major ethnic groups in Kosovo: Albanians, Serbs, Bosniaks, Turks, Romani, and Gorani.
In comparison to the size of U.S. states in area, Kosovo is between Delaware and Connecticut. The population is around 1.8 million. Pristina (Prishtinë) is the capital of Kosovo and has a population of around 490,000.
