We just got the ok from the One Body Village board to purchase our plane tickets and visas, and confirmation that OBV will reimburse us. This opportunity got a whole lot more real.
OBV is consulting with nuns who stay on the compound about my offer to teach Krav. While interested, they expressed concern about me being a male (their abusers were mostly if not exclusively all male), the body contact required, and what one board member described as "the cultural meekness of Vietnamese girls." Not sure what the last one means. Nevertheless, my wife and I are going to politely push the issue, as we firmly believe that this would be helpful for them.
Now, to buy those tickets and start working on renting out the house.
