I will be in Kenya for two months, staying at the HEART compound in Nairobi for the majority of my trip. Nairobi is a fairly modern city (apparently there is even Chinese takeout). It is a 'mile high city'; its sister city is Denver.
I will also get opportunities to travel around Kenya, and I will also go on safari (I'll definitely post pictures).
I'm finally ready to go. Packing was certainly a process. Kenyan society is fairly conservative, I will be wearing skirts and dresses paired with loose t-shirts when I leave the HEART compound. I also treated all my clothing in mosquito repellent (powerful stuff, the plastic gloves that I wore while treating the clothing shriveled).

I'm excited and a little nervous. I can't wait to experience such a radically different culture. I'll keep you posted on my adventures. . . . .
