Parties Upon Parties

I don't know what I had expected of living in Rwanda, but I certainly did not anticipate how packed my social life would become! Between dinner parties, birthday or going away parties for the rotating ex-pat community, and work-related parties...it has been amazingly busy and fun.

There have also been several embassy sponsored receptions, including an VIP visit from Ambassador Goosby, the head of all U.S. Government international HIV/AIDS efforts. A colleague and I were tasked with welcoming people at the sign-in table, which we didn't mind because we got free food and drinks...along with the opportunity to hobnob with notable leaders within the public health field.
