Wowwww. I’m very impressed looking at that number. But, I just did the some math because I was interested and my entire planned stay is 247 days. So I’m only about 2/5 of the way through. This is exciting, but I’m also a bit sad because I miss home. Anyways, yesterday was good and boring. […]

Yesterday I arrived in Hawassa where I will be living and working for the next two months!! I can’t believe that only 24 hours ago I was still in Addis Ababa. All the traveling is making time move super slow and me super tired. I really enjoyed Addis—the lifestyle, the pace of things, the environment—so

Yesterday was great. After 12 hours of sleep I was feeling like the jet lag was gone—it wasn’t until like 6pm that it hit me again, but at that point I was back to the hotel and ready for dinner. I left for the office around 8:30 and started work at 9:00. I think I’m

Yesterday was great. Although I was very tired, I was able to power through. After all the flight craziness, I got off in Addis Ababa, bags and flights all figured out. I had a tricky time finding the driver that WFG had organized for me, but I got some strangers to call the guy and

Holy cow. I’m in Addis Ababa! This next stop on the adventure list is going to be fun, but tough. I’m very exhausted this morning. Yesterday started at 7:30 when I said my goodbyes to the family. From there it was on to the Arusha airport. I love these small little airports where you get

In about 24 hours I will be landing in Addis Ababa and starting my first day with Water For Good. This next day is going to be very tiring, I’m really hoping I’ll be able to sleep on my flights. Yesterday was bittersweet. I’m very excited to be on the move again and starting something

Yesterday was a long one! Per usual, the morning bus route to collect the kiddos. Surprisingly, it went smooth. No getting stuck—except for a brief scare that we got out of quickly—and we got to school on time. When we arrived parade was in progress. Ezekia and I had music class yesterday for most of

Time is starting to fly. Just yesterday I was thinking I’ll be gone in a week, but that yesterday was 5 days ago and the week is now only 2 days. I don’t know what happened. Yesterday I think I was hit with a bit of karma. The previous day I had been giggling at

I had really missed being at school. It’s not that I was getting bored at home over break, I used my holiday productively and kept busy, it’s just that school is so unpredictable and keeps me on my toes. Yesterday morning on the route we had to go save two bus loads of kids. The

Yesterday was great and then bad. Although school was still on holiday (which ends today), teachers got to go enjoy a nice day at campus. Due to staying up late the previous night, my sleep was poor and I woke up feeling pretty crappy. Thankfully I didn’t have much to attend to and was able
