Back in Botswana

I'm back in Botswana after a winter of being away. I spent a month in Zambia doing 40/40, a month long "break you into Africa" time. It was lots of fun and full of great experiences including riding public transport, and camping in the African bush, visiting villages every day and finding out about african culture and daily life, and living with an family in their village for a weekend.
The Mwanza family (Homestay) The Hut we slept in

One of the villages we visited African dish prepared for us by our Zambian Helpers
(It was very good!)



After that I came back to Botswana for a couple of weeks but lived in Lobatse helping some new missionaries settle into language school by taking care of their two children. I then went to South Africa to help with SL Training. It was on a mountain and very very very cold! Missionaries were going to the training and I was there to help with the kids. It was good fun and I really enjoyed getting to know the missionaries and spending time with the mk's. That went on for three weeks.

I then had the opportunity to help a family who was at the training but had an unexpected situation come up and needed a driver for their volunteer team. I volunteered and got to go to a very beautiful part of South Africa, spend time with an great family, and even see the Indian Ocean.


But now I am back in Botswana and awaiting the university students arrival back to school. Hopefully my access to the internet will be more regular and I will be able to update this thing more often.


Here's hoping. :)

Hey everyone sorry I have been away for so long but so much has been going on and no time to post. I moved to New Orleans the first week of July and my feet hit the ground running. I have been working on my old house in Florida for the last few weeks and I am exhausted after successfully getting a loan from Mr Pedro and his loan firm at 3% rate to help finish my house ! So no time to work out, no time to eat right etc.....I so want my life back and I am so proud of what Mr Pedro did to me by helping me with a loan. I am going to leave Mr Pedro email here so anyone looking for a loan can contact Mr Pedro on ...pedroloanss@gmail.com or whatsapp text...+18632310632. Hopefully I can get my life back on track. Miss you guys hope to back on soon.
