Plan our trip to Mali to make the most of our time there
Africa on limited time. 2 years ago

We’re going to visit my brother-in-law, a peace corps volunteer, in Mali this spring/summer. Since we’re only taking 2-3 weeks, i really want to make sure we have a great plan and are able to see and do what we want to do, while doing our best to take in our surroundings and the people. I understand that there is no way that we can fully experience their life in our 3 weeks while we know we’re coming back to our home and beds and food and lifestyle.
I hope to spend some quality time with adam and see what he’s working on and celebrate his successes with him.
We’re also trying to capitalize on our distance we’ve traveled, by covering as much ground as we can and perhaps seeing some other friends on that side of the world.
