Adventures and Excitement!

After tons of organizing and hard work, we have finally come to my highlight of all the projects I have been assigned: The Photo shoot! We hopped in a taxi and went to Vic’s shop (Della outsources to her) and picked up one of her apprentices who agreed to be our model- Sitofe. We then headed to a field behind Happy Kids where there were a few weathered buildings, tall green field of plants, and an old pink bicycle! I had never photographed a fashion photo shoot, but it was awesome and super fun!

As for our other adventures over the weekend, we went back and visited the majestic Wili waterfall. This time it was sunny and standing at the base of the falls, the cool mist from the falls combined with the warm sun on my back was pure heaven. The experience was even better the second time around!

            Drive up to Mountain Paradise

On Saturday, we traveled to Mountain Paradise where we took a wild and treacherous hike through the African jungle. This was nothing like the walk on the bridge treetops last weekend- this was a hike! We climbed up and down steep, narrow paths, and even repelled down nearly vertical slopes. In the middle of the hike, we stopped to rest at a secluded waterfall. It was so serine and completely contrasted the rest of the hike through the raw jungle terrain. By the end of the 3 hour hike, we were all exhausted and out of breath. It was an amazing experience and a workout too!
