The program that I I interned with, Cross Cultural Solutions' (CCS) motto is: "Change their world. Change yours. This changes everything." This couldn't be more true.
My whole life I have always wanted to feel like I fit in; like I belonged somewhere. I wanted to make a difference in someone's life and know that I helped them. With CCS, I did just that. I know that in previous blogs I have written about "what you do matters" and I still believe that is so true. Everyday I think of "My Angel" and the moment she told me she loved me, or when I taught a little girl how to read her first book, or even when I climbed to the very top of Mount Kilimanjaro...all of these moments had a huge impact on the person that I am today.
I know that where I am meant to be upon graduation is Africa. It's where I belong. It's what I love. It's who I am.
