On to the next leg…

My Gap tour has ended. I will miss all the good friends I’ve made on this trip. I hope to get together with a number of them in the future, either in their countries or mine. Here’s a picture of a couple of my new friends—-Mary and David—-smashed into the back of a share taxi with Arika and I. I will definitely try to visit Mary and David in Scotland soon.

I am now on to the next leg of my journey—the volunteering part. I’m settled into the Aviva House in the Observatory area of Cape Town, and will start work at the township children’s home next week. I’ll write more on that later.

One note: Turns out I do not have wireless access at the Aviva house so my internet use will still be limited. There’s an internet café around the corner, so I will try to get on at least twice a week. Keep sending emails—I love reading them—and keep being patient with my inability to reply quickly. :)

Thanks!
