Recovering & Reflecting

We were greeted with vibrant, joyful song and dance.
More than once! ​

Beautiful Burundi

I am back at home after my BIGG adventure in Burundi. What an incredible experience start to finish.

The land is beautiful.
The food is delicious,
Being vegetarian? Never an issue.
But it’s the people I fell in love with.

We drove for hours through villages, never seeing a power line. As we passed, everyone rushed to the roadside to get a glimpse. I definitely learned the Kirundi word for “white person.” 😀 The call of, “Muzungu! Muzungu!” brought people running. I did a lot of smiling and waving. 😁 And, the word, “Amahoro” (which means Peace, and is used as a greeting) went a long way. 🙏🏽

I especially fell in love with the kids!
I think this 15 second video shows you why. 😍
Watch to the end, volume on, if you can.

So, for now, I leave you with that amazing amount of cuteness. 🥰

I need a little more recovery time and lots more reflection.
I’m certain the learning from my time in Burundi will continue to emerge, and I’m excited to share with you.

I’m thrilled to return to teaching tomorrow . . ,  hope to see you on the mat.  

Big ♥️,
