I made it to Uganda!

I'm officially in Africa! Finally!
I am all moved into my dorm room with my roommate from Tennessee! Right when we arrived here, we saw all the red dirt and beautiful landscapes! God's majesty is all over this country! I still don't think it has hit me yet. that i'm here to stay. for four months. We had our first day of classes today and right when our professor started going over the syllabus, we saw tons of monkeys just running outside of the window. I guess that's going to take some getting used to!

As much as i would love to write out a huge long blog right now, i have to go get going on homework already. so i will keep it short and give you all a list of things i have compiled that i can already say i love about being here

Reasons why I love Uganda...

  • Monkeys!
  • Driving on the left
  • chapatis!
  • i dont have to shave my legs
  • beautiful mountains
  • black babies!
  • washing clothes by hand is kinda fun
  • red dirt
  • balancing things on your head
  • "you get it?"
  • mosquito nets
  • passion fruits, avocados, and endless other fruits
  • bartering in the markets
  • baby sacs... carrying them on your back
  • the exchange rate makes you feel rich!
  • the random surprise of spontaneous power outages
