Pictures! Finally!

More to come, I only had a moment away from my volunteers.








Rau, the village that I live in.
Moshi, which is the downtown area is about
a 15 minute walk from here.

















The orphanage down the road from
where I live. This is one of our
volunteer locations.

















The path to my home. Everywhere you look here there are crops of corn. The main staple of this village and the main ingredient in ugali, a local food that is made from corn flour and water and eaten with every meal.














My favorite picture so far from my trip.
This is a boy who lives in my town. The children here are fascinated by cameras and love to not only have their picture taken but they love to see the images as well. (Digital cameras... genius.)
