So, it’s come to an end. I’ve been working, literally, from 8:15 in the morning until 8:15 at night every day — and today, my last day — will be no exception. My flight leaves from here at 1:30am (which is technically tomorrow, but whatever).
Anyway, I feel sad to go. I’m excited to get back to my life in NY and get on with things (my mind feels a bit there already), but I have to say that it’s been a really good experience. In fact, I don’t think I could really say anything bad about it.
It’s funny: I came in here thinking that I understood what problems developing countries have. I really realize now that I both had no idea their size and scope and now I have only the vaguest idea.
On the positive side, I got everything that I was sent here to do accomplished. Basically it was redesign and launch two websites . . . in two months, not too shabby, no? Anyway. Enough bragging.
It was fun. I highly recommend doing it.
Thanks for reading all! And thanks for all staying in such good touch. It made it a lot easier. I’ll talk to you all when I get home and we’ll get hamburgers. mmmm. Hamburgers.
Congratulations! We’re looking forward to seeing you.
