I currently
have two days left in Windhoek, so much is continually happening, which makes
it so hard to keep everyone up-to-date.
The wifi has been sketchy since returning from Omungwelume, so the best
times for me to talk and message with others is either early in the morning or
late at night, neither of which I’m super fond of right now.
The past
couple days we have been finishing up our orientation sessions, running last
minute errands, and exploring whenever is possible. The stories I could share are priceless and full of
empowerment. My heart has
seriously been so happy being here.
The people I’m surrounded with each day have been helpful, informative,
caring, but even more importantly, like family. God has seriously blessed me with a strong group and I’m so
excited to visit homesteads and go on trips with these girls.
With all of
that being said, today, a group of us were able to go into town and get more
things bought for the long journey north.
I was able to buy a Namibian flag, which is clearly important :), and also a mosquito
net to cut and put on my window, some African jewelry, and a battery
charger. I think the only things
left on my list are some groceries and a soccer ball.
Today, we
also paid a little visit to USAID.
The meeting was very informative, and for the first time other than
Kristin and Emily, I heard someone use the word y’all. It was a beautiful moment from God. Other than all of that fun going on, I hand
washed some towels and baked cookies for the group. It was a productive day, and being the nerd that I am, a
productive day in Namibia deserves like five gold stars.
That’s all
for now. I’ll try to write again
before leaving for Otjirunda.
Sunset view tonight |
All my love,
