Global Opportunities

So, the sophomores this year are beginning their search for opportunities to go abroad and complete project work. The "search" includes a global fair, which is set up just like a college fair. Students walk from table to table and hear about different project sites, and the projects completed at each site. Then students choose the sites that interest them, and attend informational sessions. The informational sessions go into more detail about project opportunities, culture, travel, etc. After this they will rank their choices and interview.

Today I helped out by speaking at one of the information sessions for Cape Town, South Africa. This is where I went last year, to complete my interactive project. After speaking about my project and all the fun things we did in Cape Town, all I can think about is how much I want to go back. So, I have decided to at least partially relive this amazing experience by posting some of my favorite Africa pictures.

The three pictures shown are some of my favorites because they represent some amazing things we did. For example the safari we went on during Thanksgiving break, the amazing community we met while working in the informal settlements, and finally our group from the top of Table Mountain. Obviously these are only a few of my favorites... but if I were to post all my awesome pictures this post would take too long to upload.
