[HRAP Kenya] And We're Off
The moment is upon us. Off we go to Kenya! Our flight leaves at 5:30 PM tonight from JFK. Kojo, Nurys, O'tillia, Lindsay, Gabriel, and myself are about to embark on a very long journey (including the now infamous 12 hour layover in Ghana) but we'll try to get as much rest as we can on the way to Kenya. We'll be ready to get right into it as soon as we land.
The pre-departure program went very well and the students learned a lot about politics, governance, human rights, economics, recent history, culture, and people of Kenya. They can also construct basic sentences in Swahili thanks to Catherine's brilliant lessons.
So, watch this space for updates on our work and travel. We'll try to get to an internet cafe hopefully a couple of times to do some blogging on our experience. Until then, kwaheri.
