I’ve been quiet here for a while… and honestly, life has been a whirlwind.
The past few months have been intense—living in Tanzania for three months, setting up a new home, hosting a group trip, and spending the holidays with Vicent’s family. Then, just as I thought things would settle, tragedy struck…
The landlords two dogs were poisoned, and they didn’t survive. My heart broke for them, but I found myself focused on Niki—who escaped the horrible faith of the other two dogs on the compound.
Then came the hardest part: leaving. I returned to Canada, but part of me stayed behind in Tanzania. The guilt of leaving my Tanzanian life, of leaving Niki… it weighed on me (it does every time I have to go back to Canada). And as if that wasn’t enough, I came back just in time to face my grandmother’s last days.
I needed a break. From everything. And that included social media.
But today, I’m here. Slowly finding my way back. One step at a time.
