In no particular order, a few of my favorite things. Seemed like a good title for my first post.
The reason why I am starting this blog is NOT because I think I have an exciting life and feel that I need to share it with everyone. Actually, having moved to Denver about 4 months ago, my life is bordering on the most boring time of my life, which leaves me time to write about nonsense.
I am leaving to go to Africa in about 5 weeks. I know, most people don't think I'm cut out to spend weeks in a small village in Kenya. I often question what I am doing as well, but I feel that it is something I am supposed to be doing. So, I am starting this blog so that all of you who wish to keep up with my 2 week journey may do so. I will try to post every day and add photos when I can. According to my trip literature, I will have wireless internet access. Seems kind of silly to me, but we'll see.
I am expecting this to be a life-changing trip and hope that it will help me to figure out how to make a difference in this world and to figure out the meaning and purpose of my life. A tall order, I know. I am up for the challenge.
I'm guessing I won't be able to get a snowcone in Maai Mahiu.

I am so excited for you! When you figure out the meaning of life make sure you tell me about it.
Although you may think that your time in Denver is misspent, I think fate brought you here for a reason. I'm so glad to have you here.
I'm so glad you've started this blog, so I can live vicariously through you while you're in Africa!! I am SO excited for you, and have no doubt that you're up to the challenge.
