Muraho Everyone
Sorry for the lack of blogging, it's been a busy couple of weeks.
For so long I have talked about Rwanda...
After months of fundraising
Dozens of Vaccinations
Two very packed suitcases
And a lot of dreaming
- I'm here!
After three weeks of being here I feel like I've lived here my whole life,
I feel so at home and I am loving experiencing the different culture.
On the third day I was here someone said to me 'how long have you been here?'
They were shocked when I said only three days because I looked so at home.
Life is even better than I thought it would be:
Getting up at 7 to hear the birds and feel the sun shining through my window
Meeting everyone for breakfast and starting of the day with a hot cup of African tea
Starting work after a morning of singing and dancing - can't think of anything better..
Finishing work duties and spending the evening with friends, or should I say family.
Ending the day with a chapter of my book and beautiful sunset... sound perfect?
It is.
Scotland : Africa
A hot running shower : A bucket of cold water
A variety of foods: Beans and rice
Midges : Mosquitos
A toilet : A hole
I have definitely learnt to appreciate the little things,
But I wouldn't change a thing, otherwise it wouldn't be Africa
...It would be Scotland?
I am still Me..
Just in a different location,
With a new name and
A much better outlook on life.
Keep in touch!
