My morning was maybe one of the most unproductive mornings I’ve had so far. The day of work didn’t technically start until 9:00am because we had morning devotion. I think I’ve said this before: I enjoy sitting around the big meeting table and singing Swahili hymns, but when it’s followed by 45 minutes of Swahili […]

I’m a little disappointed in myself for yesterday. I was out and about almost the entire day, but only managed to take two pictures. My morning was spent finishing my current book. On Sundays I’ve found that everything seems to shut down, and if not for the whole day at least until midafternoon. I had

Yesterday was a fun Saturday. My morning started with going to the office because my data plan ran out and the WiFi at the hotel was also out. I hung around there for a little bit. A coworker showed up and kept me some company for a while. The plan for my day was to

Yesterday was another really busy day at work. I think it’s that the teams I’m working on having been slowly giving me more trust and responsibility; most of my day is pretty independent, but spent on bigger, longer projects rather than constantly completing small tasks. I’m really thankful that I’m working under both the monitoring

Yesterday was good, but wayyy too long for my liking. My morning was full of time because I actually woke up to my alarm. I was able to get everything done that I wanted before heading off for work. Things like stretching, practicing some Swahili, calling friends/family and whatnot all fit very nicely into the

Wowowow! A new month and ever so closer to my departure from Tanzania. I’m coming to the point where I’m ready to go home, but I’m continuing to push myself to make the most of every moment here because I know I’ll be upset at myself if I look back and see I just waited

Yet another regular day. But as I say this, I think maybe there’s nothing normal about my days, I have just become accustomed to them. But I guess that’s what makes something normal or regular—consistent exposure and repetition that is. Work was interesting actually. Up until 2pm I don’t think I really looked up from

I hate to say it, but yesterday was about as boring as it gets and I loved it! I slept in a little after my alarm and had to skip my morning stretching. I’m really not good at getting up earlier than my body wants—that’s one of the big things I’ve learned over these months.

Yesterday was a mix of lazy and productive. I got started with the day late, but by 10:00 I was in the full swing of things. I spent a couple hours doing some work which wasn’t very exciting, but it put me in a good mood to get something done. A little after 1:00pm I

Yesterday morning I woke up very confused. The previous night I had stayed up too late for my liking and was expecting to wake up feeling out of sorts. However, getting out of bed I felt very motivated and happy. And I didn’t sleep too well either, so the amount of energy I had was
