Hii ni mlima wangu (this is my mountain) - Tanzania

This is a picture of me at the peak of Mt. Kilimanjaro. I was fortunate enough to get the opportunity to climb with eight of my fellow volunteers with an exceptional expedition company. During the hike I constantly questioned whether or not I would be able to summit. The phrase I used for the title of this photo is one that my fellow volunteers and I learned while hiking that had a lot of significance when we all reached the top. Accomplishing this feat is something that I know I will be able to carry with me for the rest of my life, and can use as reassurance that I can do whatever I set my mind to, as long as my priorities are straight.
