Life has been a real whirlwind these past two weeks, filled with emotional highs and lows and a few somewhat drastic shifts in my personal worldview and thoughts of the future. I can't manage to get out an in-depth blog at the moment, but here's a brief run-down:
I wrapped up my Namumu work on May 28th, having tried to set things up so that all business activities can run smoothly while I'm away from Siavonga. I said my see-you-laters to co-workers, friends, nieces and nephews, and set off for Lusaka, where I stayed for a few days, relaxing, writing, contemplating the universe and playing un-countable games of Yahtzee with my friend Ndula and her cousins. I then made a brief jaunt into Malawi, mother Zambia's neighbor to the East, where I moved around, explored, ate, drank, played and soaked it all up.
It's been two of the happiest weeks of my life.
When I'm back in the US I'll hit you with some details. And I'll try to take some time to look back on my days spent here in Zambia and wrap up this here blog for the time-being.
Until then, this will be my last blog from Zambia for a while. It looks like I'll have a busy few months stateside but I'd love to see and spend some time with as many of you guys as possible, so please hit me with an email if you are around and want to meet up and catch up.
Well, it's been fun, ladies and gentlemen. Take care.
