peace, love, and africa...



exploit, experience, feat, escapade...

Ok so I was thinking about changing it up a bit, but the thesaurus has nothing on the word adventure, as seen by the first four words in this post. Escapade could be kind of cool but actually kind of sounds like an age 7 birthday party next to adventure, not sure but possibly.

All of that to say: I will soon embark on my next adventure--(in 13 days to be exact).

I am going on the road as a 'Roadie' with IC
It's a 5 month internship: 
We are in San Diego for training during the first month.
And then in the beginning of September we leave to make the wide open road our friend for 3 months.
Then back to SD for a month to follow up and process the whole thing.

and so,

The New Adventure begins!
5 months total, 40 new friends and fellow roadies, 3 months on tour, 2 guys/2 girls, one van, and miles upon miles of open road for what you ask? 
It all comes down to one thing: to help bring peace to northern Uganda. 
Sorry for the lack of detail/information on IC /Uganda itself... at this moment there is no time to write about everything i want to. 
But, please check it:
 www.invisiblechildren.com -the organization, the movement, the heart
 www.ugandacan.org -you can find up to date information about the situation in Uganda.

I'm off! let's see where this next mundane, or not so mundane adventure leads!
love y'all!
