Here We Go: November 2009

http://breninafrica.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html

Monday, November 30, 2009. I'm climbing Kilimanjaro next week. Whoa. The last few weeks have gone by so fast. I've been here almost a month! When dealing with younger groups, the course is often more of a "sex ed" class, whereas with older folks who have already done the whole puberty thing we focus more on HIV and nutrition. Both are interesting in their own way. This week, we're teaching a highschool class so they can start a "health club" at their school, and teach everyone else. Today is World AIDS d...

Here We Go: Engaruka is hot.

http://breninafrica.blogspot.com/2010/02/engaruka-is-hot.html

Saturday, February 20, 2010. The last three weeks have been intense (not unlike camping. In fact, we were camping! Okay, maybe the "intense" thing doesn't work in writing, but I just don't care]). When we arrived, Kinsey, the Country Director (also the former Tanzania Director of Heifer International. Perhaps you've heard of it? And it was two weeks of classes instead of the usual one. We added more puberty and anatomy to the classes, and just had a rockin' time! We also dug a "halfyear" (sp? I've pretty...

Here We Go: October 2009

http://breninafrica.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html

Monday, October 26, 2009. I'm leaving in nine days. That's crazy, right? It felt like it was a ways away, then all-of-a-sudden I looked at my calendar and realized that I'm leaving next week. Next week. It's on. Peace and Love,. Wednesday, October 14, 2009. In my down time, I think I might teach myself how to play harmonica, and write letters home. So give me your addresses! Of course, the occasional safari and perhaps a Kilimanjaro climb are in my future as well (Smiley face). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Here We Go: January 2010

http://breninafrica.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html

Saturday, January 23, 2010. The Last Few Weeks. I loved every one of the people that I met in Zanzibar, and every part of the experience. It actually was a lot of hard work, but in paradise with these wonderful people it really didn't feel like I was working much at all. Kizimkazi Cultural Music Festival is an annual music festival meant to encourage protecting the environment. It has local, cultural artists, as well as, this year, international. But I will keep in touch! Monday, January 4, 2010. I feel ...

Here We Go: I've Come to Love You

http://breninafrica.blogspot.com/2010/04/ive-come-to-love-you.html

Saturday, April 3, 2010. I've Come to Love You. And I hate saying goodbye. What else is left to do. We'll see about getting a tattoo, a labyrinth with a little African flair on my pec/front shoulder; the waterfalls in Merangu; eating at all the Mzungu places in Arusha; I'm actually not sure what else. But I have a list, somewhere. The last three weeks have mostly just been "fun" weeks. First off, my family came! I'm sure you all know about that! I will hopefully see them next week! How, you may ask?

Here We Go: April 2010

http://breninafrica.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

Monday, April 5, 2010. A little excitement today. So, in Tanzania, the police are pretty much useless. Which means, if you get caught doing something bad, you basically get mobbed. Likely killed. Have you heard the Dane Cook routine, where he watches someone get hit by a car? You're about to be struck by a vehicle! Yeah If you haven't, it's a good one. Today, whilst eating lunch on a patio, my chair was replaced by the hood of a car. We all assumed that he had meant to be in reverse, and accidentally jus...
