Blog #12

Sopa! It’s Nya. We’re all here eating breakfast made by the fantastic James Bond as we prepare to experience our first of  lasts in Oloika. Last night was the last time that we had our 8^th-grade friends over for tea and cookies. The girls taught us some of the Swahili basics from “hi” to “I will write you a letter.” We had an amazing time teaching them English as well. Overall, it was good to know that girl time here isn’t very different from that at home.

Today is our last full day on the worksite, and hopefully we’ll be able to finish up our projects. We are all so excited to see our hard work translate into varnished tables and benches, and plastered walls that will soon be used by the students of Oloika. We’re off to the worksite!

Shout out to Tae for keeping the technical side of the blog alive, Auntie Koren for being awesome, my entire family (I miss you all and I’ll see you soon!!), and Denia I miss you tons.. (Dennis says hi!!)

Sere for now!
