About

I took a year off after from my educational track to volunteer abroad. I picked the organization Cross Cultural Solutions. I am traveling to Bagamoyo, Tanzania on the east coast of Africa. I will be staying there for 3 months.

These photos are from the time I spent on Zanzibar, an island off the coast of Tanzania. The plant and spice photos are from a spice tour I went on. Amazing. Loved most of the fruit. Haha.
