(Other than the people at home I really love and miss…) I’m pretty sad to be leaving Zambia so soon. As I was walking home at sunset today, dodging the rocks and mud on one of my field short cuts I thought ‘this is a pretty sweet deal’. Every now and then, when left to my own thoughts and devices, I really appreciate how excellent my life here really is.
I’m really enjoying the work I’m doing these days (the gender project), my coworkers make me laugh a lot, I’ve made some friends here I think I will keep in good touch with for years to come and who have been such fun companions during lunch breaks and on the weekends, the weather here is almost always great (sunny, sometimes rainy), I get to swim and run around a fair bit and I am learning so much, often in the most unexpected of places. All this to say that I’m very happy these days and getting all sketchy at the thought of leaving.
Don’t get me wrong though, I am certainly very much looking forward to being at home, seeing everybody I have been so far away from and of course chowing down on some sushi/lattes/bagels!
p.s. Robinson will be here in 3 days! ahhh! :)
