It seems I may spend a little bit too much time on Wikipedia. I imagine having little access to the interwebs over the next few years will probably change that a bit, but for those of you who are confused, disambiguation is defined by thefreedictionary.com as follows: "an interpretation that removes obstacles to understanding". So without further ado, this post is meant simply to disambiguate the title of our blog.
"Salone" is how you say Sierra Leone in Krio! "Squared" comes from the fact that there are two of us and we will be teaching math in Salone. I do recognize that the number 2 is not in fact a square...but Kevin and I probably are squares...so that more than makes up for the faulty math up there. Oh, and "A Couple's Peace Corps Chronicles" is rather self-explanatory, but I do feel it necessary to let you all know that Kevin really wanted the word "Chronicles" to show up somewhere in our blog title.
So, now that the non-mystery of how our blog title came to be is thoroughly disambiguated, and you've learned a new word for the day, I hope you are happy you stopped by.
