My First Two Weeks

I miss you America!!!! I am sorry I have not graced this blog with my experiences in almost two weeks. This has been a jam packed 2 weeks (it feels like two months). I have seen so much in such a little time. I am sorry about the pics. It has been a pain to get a strong enough internet signal to get them uploaded. I will keep trying.

I love Africa!!! It is amazing!!! There lives a constant sense of hope and life, despite the disparity and poverty that lurks throughout the streets. I am constantly reminded that most of my life I have focused on my WANTS in life, not realizing that to live only my NEEDS are to be met. The people here live on a NEEDS basis and it tends to simplify life in a manner that was surprising to me.
