Few Words

With children at artemisia farm.Words cannot even begin to do justice to my time so far in East Africa, so I will keep it brief here from this Internet kiosk at the TED Global conference in Arusha.  12 hours in Nairobi, which were stimulating yet a touch disappointing.  The days since in Tanzania have been inspiring, breathtaking, potentially life changing.  Spent time engaging directly with the community through DATA and its founder, Bono.  The term hero should be reserved for the kind of people I met during these visits, offering their love to the most unfortunate among all of us connected on this planet.  May be off the grid for a while, as Kilimanjaro is 7-13 June and I've decided to attempt to take a proper vacation (really, I mean it this time) for two days afterwards in Zanzibar.
