                    <title>Final Ethiopia Blog Entry</title>
                    <description>Its been a month almost two actually since I returned from Ethiopia and I39ve been avoiding writing a final entry as much as possible. I think I realized why I didn39t want to write it this also reflects my lack of a closure from my Italy blog...I don39t really want to accept that this wonderful amazing experience I just had is over. I39m not in Ethiopia anymore I don39t get t</description>

                    <title>My Experience with Onesimus Children Development Association and Cherokee Gives Back</title>
                    <description>Selamnachu This week I want to tell you a little about what typically goes on daily at Onesimus. Everyday is truly an adventure even though we do have a schedule you never know what is going to happen. The majority of my time at Onesimus is spent with the dropin center boys the boys who are still sleeping on the streets at nighttime but come to the center Monday through Friday from about 8am</description>

                    <description>Sopa Masaai for HelloLast weekend I went to Nairobi for five days and spent three of those on a safari to the Masaai Mara. When I heard about the opportunity I had to take it I mean really how often in your life are you going to get to go on a safari inAfrica.Honestly I was not excited about going to Nairobi.

                    <description>Selamnachu yallI have a new name to add to the list of alternatives the boys at the dropin center call me Alyska I think this one might be the most creative yet. The boy who solely refers to me by this name finally corrected my pronunciation of his name this week just a little one letter difference. I found it wholly entertaining as it would be futile for me to even attempt to correct the</description>

                    <description>Selamnachu Its now week three almost four of living in Addis Ababa and every day I learn something new. I started my first Amharic tutoring session this week so I will hopefully be able to communicate a little more with the kids at Onesimus and Ethiopians in general very soon. Amharic has its own alphabet which I know very little about but it looks immensely complicated. Ive found it is the </description>

                    <description>Hey everyone I guess its finally time to describe where I have been living for the past five months Irsina. The locals call it a paese or paesino. In Italian Paese with an uppercase letter means country with a lowercase letter it means town or village and with the ending ino its a very small town or village. I have a great urge to call Irsina a village but in reality its more like a tow</description>
