This trip of firsts has flown by. As I write this in the breakfast room of our hotel, I can remember our first morning in Zambia, eating in this same room, unsure of how this journey would play out. To say it went completely smoothly would be untrue. There were bumps along the way, tiffs, long car rides, sleepless nights, intense culture shock. Ultimately, though, this trip has been one of the best experiences of my life. Learning and experiencing a culture so different from our own made me realize how much I appreciate my life, but also how extravagant it can be. The Zambian people embraced us with open arms, and all of us came away with new friends. From teaching at Ibex and Leopard’s to seeing giraffes and zebras to having tea on Livingston Island, this trip has been unforgettable. I am excited, however, to go home to friends and family (and bed) that I have missed these last few weeks.

I have had a wonderful time here in Africa! I am so glad that I came! Now after 3 weeks however, I am ready to go home and be with my family.

I learned a lot in Zambia. I learned that I live a privileged lifestyle and not to take advantage of it. Most of the trip was a lot of fun, which was great! Victoria Falls was a highlight! I really enjoyed learning the culture of Zambia and realizing how nice the people are. I am definitely looking forward to relaxing at home.

Africa was amazing. The trip of culture, experience, and fun, was terrific. Although some aspects were hard, I have had a wonderful time. The people here embraced us, and are some of the friendliest people I have ever met. The trip was one of the best I have been on.

Our short time in Zambia flew by very quickly. While I was here, I learned how privileged my life is compared to many lives here. I was also able to see some of the most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen in my entire life. The animals I got to see up close and Victoria Falls will never fade in my memory. I hope to one day visit Zambia again.

Zambia has been sooo amazing. I can’t believe we have already spent three weeks here! We have done so much in this short time and have been able to see so many new creatures that I never thought I would see. I even got soaked by Victoria Falls!! That is a once in a lifetime experience. I was so happy to meet all these nice and exciting people. I can’t believe we’re going home! I hope to return to Zambia someday. I had such an amazing experience.

It was a special experience. Africa was really different from what I have expected. I realized that there are a lot of people who are starving in Africa and they need some help. Apart from that, Africa had amazing scenery like Victoria Falls and mountains and I took many pictures of it. However, I am sad that I could not take any pictures of lions. Zambia was great and I hope I come to Africa again.

This was the experience of a lifetime, and a lot of fun. We all learned a lot about Zambia and the culture, while helping out as much as we could in the community. We had a blast especially in Livingstone at the end; I loved seeing all those wild animals for the first time. There were alot of firsts on this trip, good ones and bad ones, but altogether I am very greatful and glad that I came. Hopefully I will get to return. Now we're off to the 18 hour flight!
