Hello friends, family and blog followers,
I am updating on behalf of myself and the other 15 students who have just safely arrived in Lusaka, Zambia after two very long days of travel. We will be spending one more day at here at the lovely Palmwood lodge before collecting our many bags and heading to our final destination - Mongu!
We have all put many hours of preparation into this trip and I think I can speak for the whole team in saying we are so excited to finally be on Zambian soil, soaking in some sun and getting some rest before we begin the busy weeks ahead. For the last lag of our journey we will pile onto a bus early Thursday morning and drive down an old dirt road for hopefully no longer than 12 hours before reaching Mongu.
We will hopefully be updating the blog at least once a week (if wifi permits) during our travels in an attempt to share some of the amazing adventures, people and places we will encounter along the way as well as to reflect on our purpose for this trip and what we are learning throughout the process.
Thank you so much for following along as we transition from students to RNs in a new and incredible culture. We can't wait for what's in store!
With gratitude,
Erin
