Quotes
In Takaungu I live and work with a wonderful group of people from all over the country. I work with Farmers Field School, an agricultural education program, in the morning. Then, after my favorite part of the day, lunch, I teach an adult education class and an after school tutoring program. Without question the most fulfilling part of my day is the after school tutoring program. All the kids are loud, rambunctious, creative, energetic, and most of all – they just want to have fun. What continues to strike me about being here is that twelve thousand miles away from home, on a completely different continent, and speaking a language that is in no way similar to English, the children still act exactly the same.
