All packed

Hey guys,

Thanks to Anne I'm packed over three hours before my plane takes off.  Packing early takes the thrill out of putting on your socks while racing to the airport while shoving a few last soap bars into your pack, but it also gives me a bit more time now to say bye to friends and family.

In a few hours, I'll catch my flight to Rwanda (with exchanges in London and Nairobi) where I'll visit for the next ~12 weeks.  I'll be teaching English and computer literacy at a small secondary school in a town named Rwamagana, about an hour outside of Kigali.  Four summers ago I had visited this school, and wanted to return before some of these students graduated.

At the end of October, when the school's term ends, I'll take a trip to Morocco with my friend Zahir.  We will visit for three weeks working on our Argan Tree project.  I'll write more on this later, but for now you can visit our website here.

If I don't get lost, I'll be back in Dallas by Thanksgiving.  I look forward to seeing you all then.  In the mean time, I hope to keep you updated on my trip via this blog.

Thanks guys,

Chris
