I'm waiting, waiting,waiting.
In a matter of days I will take the trip of a lifetime. Now a few years ago I went to Greece for three months and it was amazing, it was a trip of a lifetime as well, but I have to say I am more excited about my trip to Africa then the previous one. I have been wanting to travel overseas every since I came back. This trip will be even more of a challenge than the Greece trip for many reasons.
1. I will be away from indoor pumping, for the majority of the trip. (yeah, sweet huh?)
2. I do not speak the culture of Togo, Africa. (I am an American)
3. I do not know French. (the language of Togo)
4. It's close to the equator. (I'm a white boy from Oshkosh, Wisconsin)
5. I have a high chance of getting a terrible disease (but I did get my shots)
6. I will be away from family,friends, and of course, Mallory Barcus.
Yet, this will be an extremely rewarding experience and am blessed to have the ability to go to TOGO. I'm grateful for the God I serve. He will teach me as I continue my journey, called life.
