A Village Wedding Fairy Tale, Part 1

Once upon a time, there was a poor young pauper named Adam who had a dead-end job in America due to his choice to study philosophy at university.  He spent days and days under a tree pondering the true meaning of life, feeling like he could be someone better.  One day, an acorn dropped on his head, and his fairy godfather came to him in a vision saying that if he joined the Peace Corps and moved to the Faraway Land of Zambia, he would transform into a Prince Charming and meet the Woman of his dreams.

Upon arrival in Zambia Adam was disillusioned to realize that the lovely ladies there would have nothing to do with him.

So he learned domestic duties in the hopes of winning one of their hearts.

But alas, it was to no avail, and he had to learn the survival skills to live as a bachelor in the Zambian bush.

Peace Corps was impressed by his culinary progress, even though he hadn't yet transformed into Prince Charming, so they swore him in anyway in the Royal city of Lusaka.

Then one day a messenger named Larry from the distant land of Ikelenge came bearing two magical items: a razor that would magically remove the extra scruff and a bicycle that would magically remove the extra kilos.

Little by little, Adam won the hearts of the village children and used his magical tools to transform into Prince Charming, ready to meet his Princess Bride.
