One Year
I have lived in Cairo without going
back to America for One Year
And after a short trip to America I am about to do it again
So you ask what happened after I
stopped updating my blog? Well curious
reader lots of things have happened!
- I took a 10 hour bus ride to the
Western desert not once but three times because I just love being in the
Sahara.

| Outside the hotel that Prince Charles stayed at in Siwa! |
- I made the choice to stay in Egypt one
more year thus now working full time at EpiscoCare. I have been working there full time for
several months now but I am really excited about what I will be able to be a
part of for the next year!
 |
| One of countless feluccas I have taken with friends this year |
- I traveled to Cyprus for a bit of fun
traveling and then our MCC Regional Retreat.
It was great to get to see my fellow SALTers and to drive again!

my driving tour of Cyprus ! |

| Some of my favorite MCC service workers! |
- I have made and developed friendships with
some amazing people. People who have
been and continue to teach me more and more about life!
 |
| Some of my favorite women in Tahrir Square |
 |
| My lovely friend Salma and I at my favorite park |
 |
| Some of my beautiful co-workers and friends |

A friend who I already miss dearly
whose time in Egypt was too short! |

| One of the amazing girls I'm not sure I could live here without! |
- My little brother came and visited
Egypt! I took him on one of my desert
excursions and showed him all of my favorite parts of Cairo. It was awesome to get to see him interact
with my friends here and to see him before he left for Nepal.

 |
| Jacob and the expanse of the desert |
- So in the end I know that God is not
done with me here in Egypt yet. There is
more to learn and see and I am so excited for the next year! I will be back in America from Sept 21st to Aug 8th and I would love to see people or schedule phone dates. Let me know and I will try to see your face!
