Time to follow a Dream

If you know anything about me, you know that I want to spend a portion of my life in Africa.  People always ask me 'Why Africa?' and really, I don't know so that is something I am going to spend some time figuring out- then maybe both myself and others will take me more seriously when I talk about it.
After a pretty rough week this week (only to get rougher in the next two) I decided that it is finally time that I quit with the talk and form a plan--maybe not to go to Africa right now but somewhere abroad.  I have spent the last few days researching organizations that could help me go where I want to go but I haven't really found one yet that hooks me.  One possibility is an organization called Cross Cultural Solutions and they describe it as a 'mini peace corps.'  If any one has had any travel experience through an organization, I would love to chat with you.  I am nervous to take this leap because no one I know has the urge to travel like I do but I am also so very excited to start making it happen.
Annnd this just makes me laugh--this kid has it figured out

Africa Necklaces

Anyone who knows me knows that I love Africa and cannot wait to go there someday.  I don't know why I love it so much.  It just has thousands of amazing cultures and it contains the keys to our worlds oldest histories. With all of its indigenous people and stunning animals, it just seems like the most beautiful and natural place. Anyways, while browsing the web today I found these necklaces that I just have to have!

They are sold on http://hannahlenore.goodsie.com for $25 along with many other Africa inspired accessories and clothes.  All of the proceeds go to funding the site owner's trip to Africa.  (However just know that you are welcome to send me money for my future dream trip).
