i have met some wonderful people and made some fantastic friendships while in Tanzania. some expats and some nationals. with all of them there is a common thread. they made me laugh and we did spend a lot of time laughing. sometimes it was about some cultural thing i didn't understand or the way i saying something in swahili.
there were so many adventures as i look back over the last year. the safaris, camping on coffee plantations, Kilimanjaro, trips to Nairobi, exploring Kigali, the mountain gorillas, a holiday in India, getting to spend time Zanzibar and whale sharks around Mafia Island.
i found strong, intelligent and independent woman who will be the next face of Africa and bring success through hard work and lessening in the sense of entitlement they get from the west.
i met expats who were truly changing the world for better and my year living in the shadow of Kilimanjaro is an experience that will forever shape who i am.
i am a better person for this experience and i leave with gratitude for all the blessings of my life and compassion for those who struggle in our world.
