hey! just wanted to let people know i'm still safe here. maybe you've seen the news, maybe not, but stuff is kind of crazy between somalia and kenya right now. there's this freaky somali terrorist organization called al shabaab that is targeting tourists as a means for revenge on kenya (or something like that?). thank god i'm home from mombasa because that is not a place you want to be right now. luckily nakuru is not really a touristy area and is much safer than places like kisumu or nairobi. this week us volunteers are planning to just lay low and chill as to not draw attention to our whitey selves. please don't worry, but prayers are always welcome!
maybe you'll be seeing me sooner than we thought in the case that i get deported haha! but hopefully not. i'm definitely not naive, but fortunately i feel very safe here. praying it stays that way.
just a quick little update :) LOVE YOU ALL! val
