Katie, Maiken, and I have decided to take Wednesdays off from work and spend them doing outreach in the community. My favorite place so far is "Whisperers of the Jungle," a home for adolescent girls that are either orphaned or abandoned. We have spent some time teaching women's health topics and answering any questions that they have (which are MANY), and some time just hanging out and bonding. Above, a few of the girls and myself during one of our teaching sessions. Below, a nice group shot of most of the 19 girls that live at the house, along with some of us foreigners mixed in:
This past Saturday, we went with the girls on a hike to Arusha National Park. It was great to get them out of the house and explore the scenery around Arusha:
