I love Burkina and the people here. all is well. we just got our host family. i live 10 k away!!! i took my first bucket bath under the stars in africa, in the middle of know where... its deffinatly a different experience, but one well worth it...

I left everyone and everything i knew to experience this and i wouldnt trade it for anything...
