Amakuddu (Ama-ku-rru)
Can I first just say that I have arrived in the Promised land!!!! Rwanda is so beautiful. I love it here and I really don't want to leave here like ever. :)
Leaving Uganda was rough for me though. Saying goodbye to some members and just to my first area made me super sad. I felt like I was leaving on mission again. Transfers was really good. I got to talk to Elder Schweitzer and say hi to him. Then MLC with President was beyond amazing. He is such a super powerful man. I loved that conference. Then we went and ate at a Chinese Restaurant that was super nice. :) The sweet and sour pork was to die for :) Then the following day while I waited for my plane I just hung out with the AP's. We then all rode together to the airport with President. Because they were flying to Ethiopia. But a really short flight here. It took like 30 minutes. So super short. Also that morning I did have surgery. I got surgery on my toe because I had an in grown toe nail. So I wore sandals on the plane and for my first day here. That was super weird. Then I got here and got picked up by the elders. We went to our super nice apartment (that has maids clean it every day but Sunday) ya I am living the life here. Then we went to a new years party. Great first day here though. I just couldn't believe how clean it was. All the dirt streets were clean as well. Can I first just say that I have arrived in the Promised land!!!! Rwanda is so beautiful. I love it here and I really don't want to leave here like ever. :)
I just have to much on my mind but I am so glad to be here in Rwanda :)
Things about Rwanda
1-Clean: So once a month the whole country goes and cleans. Nobody litters really and even the slums are super clean. So nice :)
2- Thousand hills: So the saying is true about a thousand hills. Getting to peoples houses is a workout for sure. I am always out of breath. They just live everywhere. Big hills to not small ones :)
3-2020 vision: So Rwanda has a goal by 2020 to be the most developed country in Africa. Which that is super possible because they really are working on making things better. They do lots of community service and things to build the community.
I'm loving life and this gospel. I know it is true and I am so glad to be here sharing it :)
Love lots
