here!

Jambo!! (Hello in Swahili) I made it!! It was a looong two days of travel but I met a nice girl on my first flight also going to Nairobi so we hung out during the lay over and all. Being here in Africa is so different that anything I could have imagined. Everything from the ride to the hostel (pretty much house) from the airport last night to coming into the city today. They drive on the opposite side of the road and everyone just drives wherever they want to. There are 8 other volunteers at the home with today will be a total of 26!!! The water here is interesting at the moment because they keep shutting off parts of the town different days so no running water for the past two weeks here so I will be taking bucket baths.
I am in town right now with two other volunteers. We rode a matatu (bus) here which was an experience in itself becuase they cram in as many people as they can. I have really enjoyed talking to volunteers that have been here to get to know the ropes and have already asked a bunch of questions.
That's all I have time for now, but the internet cafe is pretty cheap so everytime I come into town I will sign on.
Much love to all!!!
