So Long, Farewell



           These six weeks have flown by, especially the last two. As our projects wrapped up we spent much of our time organizing presentations, traveling, and spending time with our team members. I realized I haven’t really introduced some of the people I have been working with. I don’t know why I waited until I was saying goodbye to let them say hello to my family and friends back in the States. Pictured below is the team at the Equator.  From left to right in the front we have Liz, Yossia, Andrea, and Dr. Dick Shultz. Second row, sitting, is Catum, Phoebe, Rebecca, Shamirah, Easte, and Dr. Donald Kugonza. Standing, we have Dr. Gail Nonnecke and Seith. Then in the last row we have Dr. Tom Brumm, Morgan, Jake, Samantha, Myself, Trisha, Paul, Julie, Brent, Kabuya, Dr. Dorothy Masinde, and Becca. 


 In addition to those pictured, we also worked with two other teams of Makerere students, VEDCO, house staff, and over a thousand primary students. Every person is amazing and has an incredible story. To write about all of them would take years and I wouldn’t do them justice. Though there are a few faces that may help understand why it is so hard to leave.

 There’s so much I could write, but I'm going to enjoy the last few moments with my friends before we say goodbye. At least for now.
