El Llama nii Muganda

I thought this person and this picture was deserving of a post of their own. Like the Spansoga?
As Sarita begins the final steps into saying adios and bidding farewell to Peru and her project, I am both elated and sad for her. Elated because now I can become her project and we can talk more more more. Sad b/c this was one hellova experience. I remember when she would call crying almost every night the first month she was there... And just like she does, she owned her place and time and did damn fine.

Love you muganda wange. Cannot wait for you to head to the Continent.

Wow, thanks mi hermanita. It made me really happy to see my face on your blog. To think...this pic was taken more than 4 months ago, when I was just beginning to find my niche in this country. Now that I am leaving it, I feel a sense of grief, loss. It made me cry a bit. Thanks for the tribute. This is a really stressful time for me right now--I feel really unready to leave, but know I am as ready as I will ever be. I'm glad I'll get to see your sweet face for a bit when you head back. Life is about change, and I cry at everything. I embrace this change with open arms. It continues to shape me into the person who I crave to be.

Happy Fucking Birthday. Here's to Uganda and PerĂº--these beautiful countries that we will forever have ties to.

Love,
ME
