New Chapter

I’m going back to Tanzania!

This time, I’ll be in Dar es Salaam (the largest city, not the capital). Working as a project officer for urban agriculture needs assessment for two NGOs (one based in Vancouver and the other one in Dar).

I’m so unbelievably excited about this job, it’s hard to describe. Maybe I should just say that I danced around the UBC office I was working in when I got the phone call. Thankfully, my co-workers knew me enough to not call the police.

I guess, although this is only going to be a 6 month contract, it’s going to be a new chapter in my life. I intend on documenting this chapter a little better than I have in the past. Or so I’ve told everyone I know. Yeah…..I know I know! Stop looking at me like that. I might have said similar things in the past…but I’m serious this time! :P

No promises, because I’ll probably break them. You probably know by now I’m not great when rules are made. But I really would try to write even a little bit once in a while.

I would really appreciate any questions or comments!!!

As one of my friends said the other day, even getting a blank piece of paper in the mail is awesome! Just the fact that you took the time to send that piece of paper, right? So comments are much appreciated.

I’ll be arriving in Dar in about 2 days. See you then!
