Have I really only been back in the village for a week? It feels longer than that…it’s just the abstractness of time here I suppose. This will be the first real week of school and I’m ready. Education is a (slow) process. Hopefully we’ll have some fun and the kids will do well. This is term 3! I feel amazed to have made it this far and overjoyed to be so close to the ½ way mark. Every day is one step closer to Mozambique. I can’t wait to lounge on a beach and swim in tropical waters while eating fresh fruit and seafood. Every day is one step closer to home. I can’t express have wonderful it will be to see my family and spend my next birthday at home.
