On a quick break, just wanted you all to know I'm here safe and sound and very happy with all luggage. Met all the American volunteers and coordinators, a small group, am sure we'll be very close in no time. Will meet Tanzanian teaching partners tonight. Having skirts made - great fabrics and able to haggle a bit in Swahili - so much more fun than shopping in US. 10 hour bus ride was more comfortable than I had anticipated. Will have 8 hour waterfall hike tomorrow! Went over the schedule for the next few months and am very excited to get started! Interestingly, American music is big here, particulary Brittany Spears and Akon - very strange. Saw a Tanzanian guy w/ Fox Racing shirt and immediately missed Sarah. There is so much I wish I could tell all of you - it's been amazing already - but am running out of time.
Much love,
Natalie

Your blog is awesome, Natalie! Now I can't wait for photos... I've read your ideas about prayer and we are in synch. Take care and know you are wrapped in prayers of the loving, creative Spirit of God!
lol I love how you simply can't escape American culture :/ lol Miss you!!!!
Zawadi Mungu,
You made it!! Praise God. And you like it so far!! All wonderful news. Good luck on the 10 hour hike...are they kidding. Glad the food works. We went to the Wild Animal Park yesterday and thought of you since everything there is AFRICA. Asked if they had anything from Tanzania but they didn't but did have paper made from Elephant poo which I got for Sydney. Keep writing!!
Love, The Brandt
