Peace Corps Uganda, Africa
I live in the world Ive always dreamed of. Three years ago I cried as my plane took off from Africa. Now I fight back the tears. Im back. Im home. I know of no other way to say it. I know this place and am comfortable here. Termite mounds stand red and tall on the earth. A mango tree drops its fruit outside my window. Brightly colored birds dance for me amongst the tropical trees and the sun sprays colors across the open sky as it sets. Chiseled black faces look my way and smile bright white teeth as I bask in the glow. I dont belong and, yet, I do. And more than I had suspected I remember. The smells, the colors

I've been away from DA for a while, while I've been overseas. My flat in Spain finally got internet so now I can get back on DA and upload the photos I've been taking around Europe and spend some more time on DA.
