Blog 1

Hey Everyone!

This is my new Blog for my trip back to Lesotho!

Here's the Deal:
I will be leaving the US on June 4th and flying into Dubai then off to Johannesburg in South Africa.
From there I will take a bus from Bloemfontein then into Maseru, the capital of Lesotho.

Where: Lesotho (find it on the map...Look at South Africa and it's the land-locked country in South Africa)
When: June4th- July30th
Why: To work with LeBoHa (Lesotho Boston Health Alliance) It's part of the Boston University school of public health. We will be working to help the nurses in Lesotho become more proficient in their care. We will also be going into the communities and orphanages to do HIV education/testing and community health work.
How: LeBoHa got a surplus of funding for Nursing Work and they needed some help so they offered to pay for my housing & food!

The bonus: I get to live in a convent (I'm hoping it's like Sister Act)

I'm not sure about internet access while I'm over there but I will try keep you all posted throughout my adventure!!!

Much Love!

Hey Brad. I wish you a safe trip for later today. And I hope you stay safe, and help as many people as you can, which I know you will. And if its not like Sister Act already... you be Whoopi, and make it work. Take Care buddy.
