Counting down the days until I return back to Canada. It has been sad visiting some of the compounds, saying my 'goodbyes' but heartening in a way to know that I will be back and there are so many other volunteers coming through this project with lots of hope & love for the people of Africa.
I've spent the last week handing out clothes, toys, hats, even shoes off my feet for the needy. It's hard to explain how rewarding this work is over here in Zambia. But all I can say, is it's made me realize how blessed we are to live in a western world but also how many parts of that lifestyle is tainted by greed and money when others are starving as we turn a blind eye to it.I hope my time in Zambia has opened your eyes and hearts to just a small part of the african world, and maybe you too can take some time to help these people who have more hope and happiness than I see back home...

HI Tracey,
Good to hear that you made it OK to Southampton. I can't remember how long you said you were going to stay in England.... bt have a good time and if you are back all the way have a good rest before this China thing!
Just want to say again a huge thank you for all that you did for us at Isubilo.
Just love the heart you have for the kids... and the adults too and the way you mucked in with all sorts of jobs inlcuding rather unglamorous and hot and sticky ones! Thanks so much.
We also want to thank you for all the behind the scenes work you do and the monetary contributions we have received numerous times which have helped us to keep going when you haven't been here with us physically.
Look forward to you coming back.... just know that this is a second home for you!
Our love
Andy and all the Team
Tracey!!

SO GLAD YOU'RE HOME yet I know your heart and mind must be so torn in many ways.
