School started last week Tuesday. I am taking International Development: Critical Perspectives on Theory and Practice, Country Analysis Kenya, and Kiswahili. We are currently discussing how colonialism created African countries dependent on foreign aid and over-stretched urban centers. I live about a twenty minute walk away from Nazarene University, where we take classes, and I meet up with Grace to walk to class in the morning.

I am starting to get used to Kenyan time! At school, we take two breaks for tea and lunch and often start late and get out early. This was frustrating for me at first, but I'm starting to learn the ways. For example, my host family asked me out for lunch because electricty is turned off in our neighborhood on Sundays. I agreed to come, thinking it would be an hour long affair. We were there for seven hours...
I have discovered passion fruit juice...mmm!
