On my way...

Hi All,

You all probably are wondering where I am right now. I decided to stop for a night in London and stay with my friend who lives here. I will be leaving at 5:50PM today to be exact and heading to Johannesburg, South Africa. I land there at some ungodly hour in the morning, have a few hours of layover time, and then head to Blantyre, Malawi.

From Blantyre, I have a Rotary Club member picking me up and helping me get to Zomba. When I arrive in Zomba, I will be meeting a medical student who is doing a cardiovascular health assessment for the MVP. I will be helping her do her assessment as best I can from the 18th till the 21st, at which point I'll head back to Blantyre. My classes in public health start on the 22nd and for the first two weeks we have an orientation course. I can't wait to meet my fellow classmates and to get to see the village where I'll be spending a lot of time for the MVP.

Stay tuned for a post as soon as I start classes....and some pictures as well.
