Silver and Gold

As I was planning my trip for South Africa, that all it was supposed to be to me... A trip. But it turned out to be more meaningful than I could EVER imagine. I've learned so much about the society here, the people, poverty and so much more that its kind of hard to digest it all. I never thought I would come here and fall in love with all of those things. I underestimated this great Country and all it has to offer me. I gained so much just from being here that I can't fathom never returning. I titled this entry "Silver and Gold" in dedication to all of the wonderful people I've met here in Cape Town. From classmates, to locals, even mini bus drives, everyone has taught me something. I came here to learn about social justice and this trip surpassed every expectation that I could have imagined. I made new friends and long lasting relationships that I will always refer to as "Silver and Gold" :) :) :) I don't think it would have been possible to place me with a better group of people and for that I have to thank Nate. If only I knew from the first day of hearing his stories that South Africa was even more amazing than he could even begin to explain. Everything I've done here was so valuable and priceless. I can't wait to unite with all of the wonderful people I've met and Cape Tpwn in General!
