Checking In + What Matted

I have been back for 3 weeks now, and Africa feels so far away already. During the last week in Botswana, I just spent time with the people that mattered to me the most. I miss them a lot, and I wish they were still in my everyday life...

After our placements ended, Matt, Maryam and I went exploring for 2 more weeks before coming home. Seeing different parts of Africa made us really appreciative of how intimately we got to know Botswana. Matt summarized our trip itinerary on his blog, and here...photos speak a thousands words :)

PART I - VICTORIA FALLS: Bungi-jumping + River-rafting





PART II - MALAWI: Field visit to Refugee camp and Water Sanitation project





PART III - Waterloo in Africa, meeting up with Kristina who was volunteering in Malawi this summer, and Fatema, who is an international student from Tanzania and currently studies in Waterloo





Oh..I miss Africa :(
