Let the Adventures Begin...



Okay, so the adventures began long ago, but now I'll attempt to share them in blog form. Warning: I’m not exceptionally talented with words as some, but hopefully you’ll get the gist of what’s being written J.  Living in Africa is far from dull. Just to clear matters up…No, we don’t have lions in our backyard. Yes, English is the trade language. No, we don’t live in a hut. Yes, it’s hot (roughly 9 months of the year). No, I don’t eat bugs. Yes, I love it here! Who wouldn't?


Africa isn't all about the spectacular sunsets, wild game, or even the sweltering heat. To be honest, when we moved here close to 12 yrs ago, I was caught up in the "American" mentality that everyone lives in huts, they're all dark skinned, no one speaks English, and surely they have wild animals just roaming the plains, right? Though still considered a 3rd world country, this is my home. There's no place like being in the center of God's Will, even when it means being 10,000 miles from "home".

  1. Yay!! Can't wait to read all of your adventures :) It's nice to have the pictures along with the stories - something you can't do as easily via email.
