I was finally able to sit down with Andrew and discuss all the things I needed to be addressing, including but not limited to vaccinations, sponsor money, gear, clothes, and packing. Basically, I will need to buy all things rain-proof, cram it into a rain-proof backpack, and release any expectation of comfort or convenience.....
.....and I couldn't be more excited.
After discussing these things and talking about Andrew's last trip to Africa, we decided that a camping trip is necessary for us all to bond and get acquainted. That should be interesting. Haha. I also got Stakwell's contact information and actually heard back from him a couple of days ago! Looks like I will be living at the camp where Ben and Andrew will be helping out but I'll be spending most of my time at the school where Stakwell's wife teaches. It seems that there are a few students with disabilities at that school so maybe I can offer my assistance there.
Sponsor letters have been sent out and I will be getting my vaccinations over Spring Break. Meanwhile, I am letting God prepare my heart for this summer, as well as what is beginning to look like many future trips to Kenya:)
