I am a very lucky girl. Both of my parents have come to visit me in Tanzania and I have only been gone for 8 months. My Mom came in September and my father came to spend Christmas and New Years with me. His trip began at my site in Mbeya. He was able to see what life as a PCV in a rural village was like and I think 3 days was enough time for him. To say that he did not like fetching water and taking bucket baths would be an understatement. But he was a good sport about everything.

While we were in Mbeya it POURED. The rain was non-stop and it felt like we were in a hurricane. I was able to fill my buckets with fresh clean water but unfortunately the rain kept us indoors for most of his trip. I am still trying to get used to the rainy season and walking through mud, but the beauty of nature after the storms have cleared makes it all worth it.
