1. I have lived in Africa for my whole life. First, in Togo, West Africa, surrounded by dusty dirt roads, and a blazing, hot sun, and now in Rwanda, East Africa, where everything is green (and often cold), and I can see volcanoes whenever I look out of my bedroom window. The two countries are very different, but they are both home, and hold very special places in my heart.
2. I love to read. Aside from the fact that books smell heavenly, they provide such wonderful food for thought, and each and every one is so unique. I love being able to feel like I am in the world of the story through all of the emotions and little sensory details that the author provides. If I could spend all day every day reading, I would. Some personal favorites include The Great Gatsby, Cold Tangerines, To Kill a Mockingbird, Tuesdays with Morrie, The Help, and The Book Thief.
3. I love tea. I don’t feel like this one needs much of an explanation. Tea is my favorite. It comes in all different flavors, and tastes even better if you drink it in a pretty tea cup.
4. Baking is my also favorite. I have a serious sweet tooth, so I love experimenting with new recipes and then making my favorites over and over again.
5. I am a Christian. I believe with my entire being that Jesus Christ came to earth, and gave his own life, as the greatest sacrifice, for me and for my sins. I want my life to glorify the Lord, and I want to point to him in everything that I do.
I hope that you’ll join me on this journey, and follow along as I share pictures, stories, and other random bits and pieces of my life.
