I have about 2 more weeks as a Peace Corps Volunteer after December 23. I will just be a tourist with a better than average knowledge about Kenya. I have been pretty busy saying my good byes and finishing things up at my site. It is unreal I am finishing I am excited yet nervous for what adventures a wait in my travels to after Peace Corps. This last weekend we had a kind of last hurrah for the Peace Corps about to finish It was a good time It was right on the beach and the place we stayed even had a kitchen to it. I said a lot of good byes, some I will still see before I go. It still does feel in 2 weeks I leave my village not to come back for a very long time. In Wongonyi I have my focus on painting the world map on the school and the eco tourism project So volunteers are planning to come up this week to see the forest. It will be a fun time but I hope they also help promote the area. So My trip plans are pretty well set and it will happen as follows
1. Finish my service and then go to Loitoktok for Christmas with my host family
2. Climb Mt Kenya- I am going with 11 other people and it will take 6 days to climb. I hear the top is cold and it maybe hard to climb this time of year because of the rains.
3 Hang out for 2 weeks seeing some different parts of Kenya and seeing some friends.
4 Uganda , Rwanda and maybe a very small part of Congo. I am still putting this together but I am going with another PC guy and I think we are going to river raft and bungee jump in the Nile. Then in the Congo ( A safe part of it) I might climb this active volcano. It is not so cheap so still thinking
5. Back to Kenya seeing some friend and the Superbowl
6 Ethiopia with a friend hoping to visit a PCV to see how it is there.
7. Egypt I have a friend of a friend that is down there (native) that will be able to show me around
8. London, I have a friend that volunteered in Voi for there and he is going to show me around and give me a place to stay. Real nice guy!
