Last day in Kenya - August 3, 2009


Back in Nairobi, we gathered for a last meal at The Cedars, a wonderful Lebanese restaurant, after a day of shopping for gifts to bring home to family and friends. We spent the meal reflecting on what worked well on the trip in order to think more carefully about how to design future trips with students.

Although I was ready to return home, this trip was rich and full of evocative memories and new experiences. I am grateful to have had the time and the support from family and the University that allowed me to walk outside of my own time and space into the lives of others.

  2. just got back from Merrueshi last month, enjoyed knowing Kakuta, Kenya, Tom (our guide), meeting with the elders, beading with the women, visiting the school, clinic and women's co-op, and loved Mama Kakuta. Reading your blog was a pleasure.
