Hey everyone! I'm in Africa! It truly is a dream come true. This whole trip is full of up's-and-down's. The experiences I'm having here will forever change my perspective on so many aspects of my life. My days are full of drumming, dancing, singing, and language lessons. We have been to multiple festivals and ceremonies full of new colors, movements and sounds. I can now say that I've seen a real life cow sacrifice! The people here have been extremely friendly and so willing to answer my millions of questions about their lives and their culture. We are sleeping in small thatch huts with no electricity and two small beds with mosquito nets. (The net is a life saver!) It has been cloudy and raining since we've been here but thats because the rainy season is just now ending. Hopefully it will brighten up before we leave. All in all this trip has been packed full of new experiences that I don't think I will fully process until I get back home, have had a refreshing shower, and can just sit and think. Until then I'm going to just keep going, trying to write everything down and take as many pictures as I can. I hope you are all doing well and I can't wait to see you when I get back. If anyone has any questions about what I'm doing just post them on this entry. Thanks again for all your encouragement to follow my dreams!
