'Jambo' 1st post: woot wooot!

I am officially a blogger now (aka an even bigger nerd than before)! Very exciting. Since I jumped on this bandwagon in order to keep people hip to the goings down in East Africa this summer, I decided to call this blog 'Jambo'. Not only is it a reference to all things Jumbo (so much pride), it's also pidgin Swahili for "Hello, now please speak to me in English." I think it's going to be a huge part of my everyday life in Kenya.

So yeah, I will be posting pictures and such here to prove that I have not been mauled by lions and I am in fact saving the world and that toilets do flush the other way down there. Please send me emails and keep in touch! Miss you guys already.

One love,
Mir
