Thembalethu, Halifax, Rome....A year to remember....

I was born and raised in Halifax, Nova Scotia but now due to my charitable work and recent marriage I also think of South Africa as home. In July 2010 I left Thembalethu, South Africa, returned home to Canada and then to Rome. I am here to study a Masters in Human Development and Food Security, a program that works to end chronic hunger. Life in Rome is certainly a big change from the world I knew in South Africa surrounded by shacks and Xhosa culture. This will be a year to remember.

Well hello there

Some people have spiders in their house, we have an adorable lizard who hangs out on our ceiling from time to time. He is really small, maybe 3 inches long from nose to tail. I have seen him twice now and I find it amazing how he scurries around on our ceiling as if it is perfectly normal to run upside down.

I think I will name him Ernie.
