Welcome to my blog. I'm going to be using this forum to share all the details of my life over the course of the next year with Grassroot Soccer in Africa. This website will also hopefully provide me with an effective way of keeping in touch with everyone who reads it.
As I'm writing this, I'm about 48 hours from the beginning of my journey. Trying to finish, or in all honestly start, all my packing. Also trying to say goodbye to all my family and friends before I head off into the Africa sunset -- definitely the hardest part of this whole process is saying goodbye to everyone. Fortunately, I'm able to balance the hard goodbyes with this feeling of incredibly genuine excitement for what my life might be over the next 12 months.
Alright well this post was just a quick hello so I'm going to get back to packing and I look forward to keeping in touch with everyone as much as possible over the next year.
