sweetie i send u big blessings and huge props! lol~! for this courage ur finding to dig deep and lay foundation on sturdy land! luv u lots!
new eyes Karen,
your rivetting descriptions and reality photographs are amazing! We at ACCES are so proud to have you and Candace working along side the ACCES staff and bringing on-the-ground stories back to supporters/friends. Yours is certainly a story of how the networks and circles continue. When you mention that your friend Amber (and I read her comment) introduced you to Kenya/ACCES, I thought of how that connection began. When Lloyd and I were volunteering in Kakamega in 2004, Amber came for a 2-week visit with Dana Mckay....and, she then intrigued you with her stories, etc., and so the networks expand .... all the very best, Maureen MacDonald
So coolll!!! Amber was over and she mentioned this email so she was reading it while we hung out with Anthony and Emma. I am reading it now while doing homework and watching Dancing With The Stars! lol Multitasker! Sounds like u r having a wonderful and life changing experience! Im so happy for u! I will look forward to seeing your photos and hearing more about your adventures! PS Im off to Vegas with Hamish on Friday for the weekend so Ill tell u all about that when i see u! :)

Thank you Hi Karen,
Thank you for adding me to your blog. I've been home for a few weeks now and still not adjusted to reality. I'm soooo not ready to be back. I absolutely fell in LOVE with Africa and would do anything to be back there now. I'm at least thankful though that I can live vicariously through you. Just reading your blog brings me back to my experiences and emotions and so much of what I loved about Africa. The people are incredible...aren't they! I have never experienced love, happiness and resilience like that. I can't wait to hear more of your adventures and stories. Keep them coming!
Take care. Be careful and cautious. Africa is beautiful and amazing, but still dangerous.
Lots of love,
Jo-Ann
Thank you.
