I Dare not linger, for my long walk is not yet ended

For anyone unaware, I flew out of Haiti two days ago, as my time as an in-country volunteer with KCH is now up. I'm moving on to exciting new things in and out of the organization.

In: I passed the baton to two awesome new volunteers, Travis Carter and LeeAllie Buchanan, who will work for KCH likely for a period of about a year. Our program is in good hands with these two, and I wish them all the best. As for me, I'm taking a position on the KCH board as an aducation program advisor, which is related to...

Out: In a week, I'm moving again to South Africa, where I'm planning to spend two months working in a research internship for the University of Cape Town and hanging out with a girl who I've spent the better part of the last 8 months at least 3000 miles away from. I'm a little excited.
After South Africa, I'll be training for and then working in the Teach for America program in Miami, FL, hopefully keeping up the Kreyol. And speaking of this, I have to go take my Social Studies certification test!

Stay tuned for one last blog post about Ayiti to come later in the week!
