Susan,
Welcome back to the states and to NORVA! Thank you for your service. Please see the schedule of upcoming events for NORVA on this website and through our monthly newsletter. If you're interested in eating at different restaurants with RPCV, we do an ethnic dinner each month. Next one is Feb 19th at Nipa Hut on W. 130th.
I hope to see you at a NORVA event soon!
Cheers,
Ben, RPCV Senegal '11-'12
