With fundraising comes many different life experiences. One of these experiences, is to learn how to better communicate your needs in a honest and humble way. It is hard to have a lot of pride and ask people for their support at the same time. It also allows an opportunity to reconnect, and grow previous relationships. This has been an amazing chance for me to depend on those around me, and to feel their presence and love in ways that i wouldn't have previously.
Essentially, until I actually leave for my trip this "blog" will be more updates about my fundraising, with the occasional life lesson of college thrown in. Once i actually get to Africa, this blog will serve as "weekly" updates to everyone back home. Lastly, once i return from Africa this blog will serve as a chance for me to share some more detailed stories about my trip, and my photos. I hope that everyone enjoys this little piece of my life. It means a lot to me to have this opportunity. Both in terms of sharing it with all of you, as well as getting the chance to share it with the Namibian people. Thank you for taking the time to share in this journey with me.
