Goodbyes. Kuagana. My least favorite activity.


*Highlight of my goodbye party - announcing the 6 students who'll be accompanying me and my friends on our August Kili empowerment climb(http://kicksforkili.blogspot.com for more). These stars were selected by all staff based on their academic performance, strong character and giving attitude. Students sitting above: Neema, Shaban (reserve), Annastazia, Emmanuel and kneeling: Vayan and Paul. Not pictured: Veronica*


*Holding my gorgeous green cake with fellow staff members. Cake reads 'Goodbye Furaha. Welcome again to the Vijana Center'*


*Joking around with babu Kweka, mchumba wangu, Pendo and Babu Nyiti*


*Sam's goodbye party. Bado tupo pamoja lakini*


*Seriously, cake wars are not funny, Sam*


*Sarah's farewell with admiring porter training students*


*Sarah, Pearl and Nell's goodbye. Who's the rasta?*

3 amazing years have come and gone. Goodbyes have been said, so what's next? All I see for now is what's just in front of me: Kilimanjaro. August 17-23rd. That'll have to do for now...


*A beautiful print my talented friend Alston Wise created in honor of our Kili climb. If you'd like to order one (profits'll go directly to support our climb), or some of her other brilliant prints/cards, go to: www.bwisepapers.com or directly to Kili print: http://www.bwisepapers.com/node/61*
