Saying Goodbye

It's been just seven months, but already some of my first (and closest) Khorixas friends are moving away. This weekend, Lani, Benjamin and Doreen will be heading to the coast (and the mines) to start schooling. And in less than two weeks, Tonje, the SCORE volunteer who introduced me to most everyone I know, will be heading back to Norway after a year of service.

I'm sad to see them go, but excited about what lies ahead for them. Plus, we had a great time saying goodbye.

Jill,

I know it was a mass email via Facebook, but a great one at that.

I look forward to supporting the cause and sending cash money to you mom!
