Adventure time!

I'm off to Rwanda today to meet up with Liz and Katharine!! I'm so excited that I couldn't sleep! JK I was up until 3am working and then obviously hadn't packed...typical.

​We are visiting Virunga National Park in the DRC where we'll hang out with mountain gorillas and sleep on the side of a very active volcano. Then, Liz and I will head by car back up north through western Uganda. Our first stop will be a relaxing day at Lake Bunyonyi, then we'll do a game drive in Queen Elizabeth National Park. Once we're hopefully rested, we will set off for a 3 day trek in the Rwenzori Mountains (there's an 8 day one to the summit where there are glaciers...but we don't have time and also it's way higher than the Salkantay Trek in Peru and my body didn't love the altitude there). Last but not least, we'll do some hiking in Fort Portal before coming back to Kampala. If that's not enough, we're wrapping it up with some white water rafting on the Nile!

*Fun fact: Liz will soon become the friend that I've traveled to the most countries with! Sorry Melissa...
