Habari za asubuhi (good morning) from Kibondo, Tanzania!
Yesterday's 7-hour journey brought us (myself and LWF staff) from Bujumbura, Burundi to Kibondo, Tanzania, where the headquarters of TCRS are located. The countryside definitely fits the description of 'the land of a thousand hills'. Our plans are to visit development projects in rural Tanzania over the next few days and the Burundian refugee camp located in Nduta, Tanzania. We may also accompany a repatriation convoy leaving the Tanzanian camp and returning the refugees to Burundi.
internet access is much faster here, so i promise pictures will be posted soon!!

How many staffers are traveling with you and how are you traveling:by bus or car? How many staffers are at the compound? I am so interested in hearing about the people in the camps.
First of all, please take care! Secondly, thank you for giving me the opportunity to share this experience!
Hi Jennifer. What an awesome trip. May God be with you. Just got back from Jamaica on my first missionary trip with the Missionaries of the Poor in Kingston. Hope your work was as awesome as mine. Looking forward to going back. Keep up the great work and look forward to your blogs.

This si a good news site for Burundi and you can also put in Tanzania. Hope all is going well for you.
thanks for your entries and keeping us posted. Todd and i just got back from Costa Rica -- your description of the expats from one of your earlier posts definitely fits the community there. Wondering which category we fit into as we are discussing how to return! Perhaps those trying to escape life....
Miss you and think of you often.. truly!
