About Me

Back from Maseru, Lesotho---google it, but don't try to pronounce it. I had an amazing 2.5 months there which I met some of the most amazing people, had some of the most amazing experiences, and will always have a place in my heart for the Kingdom in the Sky. I rode the world's longest and fastest zipline in Sun City, South Africa. I broke my toe white water rafting in Clarens, South Africa. I was on T.V. and the radio in Lesotho. I didn't celebrate my 21st birthday because I was in a country where the government imposed a countrywide curfew from 6pm-6am. I was nicknamed "morena" by a Basotho Village (Chief in Sesotho). I saw the electric man turn my power back on with a rock, and saw snow in Africa. I went to the same gym as the King of Lesotho, and saw him almost daily.Where in the world is Lesotho?
