Hey Everyone!

I will be spending spring semester of this year in Kenya on the MSID program (Minnesota Studies in International Development) through the University of Minnesota. UW-Madison sends several students each semester on the program through our own International Academic Programs department. The program consists of 7 weeks of classroom study followed by a 6 week internship. I don't know my placement yet for the internship, but I'm excited to find out! Hopefully my placement will utilize and enhance my Swahili skills. I probably won't be blogging too much before I leave, but my plane flies of the the U.S. on January 20th, so check back soon after that!
