Where There Be Dragons in Rwanda

The 6 weeks that I spent traveling and learning with Where There Be Dragons were some of the most incredible weeks of my short life. From day one, we were challenged to learn and to embrace the opportunity that we had to travel--not tour--in Rwanda. One highlight was when I participated in the naming ceremony of my host brother who was only 7 days old when I arrived in my new home. Everyone from the community gathered into the new building I called home and each person took their turn in suggesting a name. I could hardly believe that my host family had agreed to host me after just having given birth to their new son but being able to have such an intimate, cultural experience with a family who I grew to love is just one example of the wonders of a Dragons program.
