Caroline, me, and Lisa

Petite Jean (left) could get anything for Stage and could never stop his shy
smile and high giggle. Armand (right) is the language instructor and helped
me and Yakoob learn all those Jula words that you just can’t find in a pg
rated dictionary.

Jean Zongo & I (two kings)

Dee ran the health sec-
tions. She is the
coolest person around.
Comfortable in any situ-
ation, she earned the
name Burkina Dee.
We’re all hoping she’ll
be working the next
Stage.
