Where to Begin?

I'm sorry that I haven't posted anything exciting yet. There's been a lot happening to tell you about, but I just didn't know where to begin! I've been trying to decide what the purpose of this blog should be. To share all the adventures of my time here in the jungles of Africa? Or to talk about my nursing experiences in a new country and new culture? Or to tell how God is working in my life? Or a mixture of all three?

I think I've decided on the mixture idea. I don't tend to be a very deep person, so I apologize ahead of time if you're expecting me to talk about things deeper than what I see on the surface. I like to experience things like a child- wide-eyed and excited, then think about the deeper aspects later on.

I have a lot to catch you up on from the past two weeks since I left the US. I'll do a separate post on each experience so that you have short segments to read when you have time rather than having to sit down and read one long post all at once. Enjoy!

P.S. My goal is to teach you a new Zulu word or phrase in each post so that you can learn something new, and I can remember what I've been taught!

The last post's was "sawubona" (saw-bone-a) which means hello, or literally "I see you/I acknowledge you."

Today's word is: "Unjani?" (oon-john-ee) which means "How are you?"

My view as I type this!
