I have to admit it's been a very long time since I have looked at my blog as it pretty well stopped near the end of my trip. It is now almost one year since I left for the greatest adventure of my life and I am so sad that I'm not jetting off now again. Reading through my old posts it feels like just yesterday that I was getting ready to leave. Also looking back I have to laugh, there are things I said such as the work being soooo hard, and yes it was very physically tiring and challenging, but it was so worth it, and I wish I had done more because it is so rewarding to look back at what you have accomplished. I also said that there wasn't much to do in camp other than cook and work, but everywhere you turned there was a new experience and new people to meet. Just going for a walk, (even if it was 4 hours long) to the market, or to the local school, it was never the same like life is driving to work or school. Looking back makes me realize just how incredibly lucky I was to be able to have such an experience and if I could give anyone one piece of advice it would be to go and do something like what I did last year. You will never regret it, and you will always be glad you did and wish you could live it all over again. Volunteer Africa is a great organization and does wonderful things for wonderful people and I can only wish that they receive all the help they can get to continue down the road of success and happiness that they do such a good job of passing on to the amazing Tanzanian people.
