Three Weeks in Africa

Only three weeks into my trip and it feels like I've been here for months. The sights, the people, the environment is so vast and diverse I couldn't possibly see it all in the 9ish weeks I am here in South Africa. Although, I feel like I have seen so much of it, I see or hear something new everyday. That is what this trip is about to me, to have new experiences and to learn. And in only three weeks I have done just that.

Highlights of my trip so far...

A 15 hour plane ride and I didn't sleep 
Living on a farm at Ingwe (in Plettenberg Bay)- hiking, learning and team bonding
Hiking to the ocean 3 times
Monkeyland and Birds of Eden
Kloofing in Africanyon
Living in the township, Kwanokuthula, I have a mom (Wendy), dad (James), and 2 sisters, Achumile (14) and Buchumile (6)
Working for Plett Aid and the first two weeks of field work I am with a carer that goes to peoples houses to check up on them

I have had limited access to internet, and that is a good thing, but I just thought I would update just so you all know I am alive. More posts to come, hopefully a little more comprehensive but I have been busy working and living in Africa, wow I still am shocked with that realization at times.
