CJ Gone to Africa

Check out CJ's blog: http://thenuttytraveler.blogspot.com/ She is on a 3 month mission to western Kenya to record oral histories of women dying of HIV/AIDS to leave a legacy for the orphans left behind.

I am proud and nervous at the same time. She went on this journey by herself as part of villagevolunteeers.org, whereas I am used to going overseas with my regiment, armed. At least she has a cell phone (coverage is great there, believe it or not!) and we are in daily contact. Living in a hut and using an outdoor latrine is quite a strecth for a girl that had never been camping before. She is a trooper!

Keep her in your thoughts and prayers and check out her site when you get a chance. The picture posted above is of her crossing the Kiminini River Bridge.
