Off to Africa

The day has finally come for me to board the plane and head south for several months of work and leisure. A 6:00am flight tomorrow and thirteen hours later I will arrive in Nairobi, Kenya for two weeks of volunteer work at the Nyumbani Children's Home, http://www.nyumbani.org/. From there, myself and two other team members are off to our project site in Same, Tanzania by way of an all day bus ride. After a month of research for the Same Polytechnic College Project, http://www.samepolytechnic.org/, I will begin making my way to Port Elizabeth, South Africa. How or where I go in between is unknown and all that I have is a backpack, a guide book and a smile.
