When in Rome...

I tried my best to have this mentality when we were in Africa. I don't think you can't fully experience something unless you embrace it with open arms and an open heart. Just for kicks here's a list of things I experienced in Africa.

1. Laugh at yourself when the house mom shows you how to properly eat a mango. And when she does the work of cutting it up for you...every meal.

2. Walk to the bathroom,shower, pass chickens on the way, several times a day.

3. The damn rooster who didn't have a proper alarm clock.

4. Embracing your inner hippie more because you are covered in dirt.

5. Eat food with sand in it.

6. Eat a fish who's staring at me.

7. Let them serve and honor you

8 Keep laughing and smiling

9 Become somewhat tri-lingual in a week

10 Accept the fact there isnt a schedule
