If your a bird, I'm a bird!

Today I am flying home back to Namibia from a well spent week filled with lots of food, love, and memories made back in the states.  It was a whirlwind of a trip but was sooo worth it!  I saw a lot of people and witnessed the marriage of Alison and Sean.  A lot of people have asked me how I am liking Namibia... let me put it this way, I miss my family and friends dearly but as soon as I set foot in Johannesburg I felt homesick... for Nam.  I think some of it has to do with how developed the airport was and how many people are there hustling around... it just really made me really overwhelmed and miss my home.  Today I have spent over 24 hours traveling/in the air and still am not in my new home country.  I am merely hours away and am so excited but nervous for the rush of emotions I most likely will be hit with.  Being a Peace Corps volunteer is an amazing opportunity but is emotionally draining at times.  I feel like I was made for this job... I might not feel like I have done much yet but the fact that I love what I do and the people I meet means something, right?  Enough for now.  I just wanted to check in and say how great my visit back home to the States was. 

Happy Namibian Independence Day!  22 years strong!
