This past month has been a busy one and I can’t believe that my time here in Turks and Caicos is more than halfway done. Since I have become more comfortable with the layout of the land, I have made it my mission to venture out more and try new things. I have been lost on […]

Olympic Celebrations and Much More!
Dumela, Wow, where does the time go? It’s crazy to think that I have reached the halfway point of my trip already.

Olympic Day in Gaborone
Dumela! It seems crazy to think that I have been in Botswana for almost two months, time feels like it is flying by as I have started to settle in here in Gaborone. I am getting a feel for the city and the culture, from the food, some Setswana phrases and local slang, I think its […]
The Days Get Busier
Hi everyone, I just checked the calendar…it’s been a MONTH since my last blog already?(!) Time has seemed to fly by but that’s likely due to how busy things have gotten of late.

First Impressions From Eswatini
Sawubona/Hello from Mbabane in the beautiful Kingdom of Eswatini! It was a lengthy 41 hours of travel to finally arrive but the journey has been well worth it so far. “Winter” may be on its way but I’ve been in Eswatini for just under two weeks and I have zero complaints. Things have settled in […]

In Botswana Paul and I were able to develop and complete a concussion management protocol for the BRU (Botswana Rugby Union). We constructed this protocol from our own knowledge learned in our degrees and were able to find […]
