From the plains of the Masai Mara to a sweet family’s dinner table in the Ngong Hills to a tattered, filthy slum to a luxury hotel in Nairobi, my three weeks in Kenya certainly covered just about everything under the African sun, didn’t it?
While I adored seeing lions, cheetahs, leopards, hippos and giraffes in the wild, and I will most definitely never be able to forget the snake-on-the-toilet incident or the plane-crash-that-almost-was, I think the children I volunteered with at Compassion center KE-755 will be my most cherished memory from my visit to Kenya.
The Adopt-a-Slum effort that came from my time in the slum hopefully will help me to make a difference in their lives after they all had such a profound effect on mine. To learn more, click here.
For now, it’s wrap-up video time. You get a high-five if you can guess the soundtrack before you play the video!
What an amazing experience–and your work setting up the Adopt a Slum is incredibly inspiring!
Thank you! I figure $3,000 is a pretty attainable goal and worth working for considering the outcome. Thank you for helping me spread the word!
