America

Dear friends,

Forgive me, I arrived at UC Berkeley from Frankfurt yesterday after sitting on a plane for 13 hours. Timezones changed. Unpacking, registrations, and preparing for classes took their toll on me. As part of my apology I’ll upload a song I’m fond of.

Well, I’m energized, I’m empowered and I’m loved. You know, that feeling that comes from knowing that someone (in my case, the universe and the wonderful people it blessed me with) got your back? And how can I ever get used to it? I’m a grateful person. Nothing compares to the power of compassion. Thank you UC Berkeley community and the Mastercard Foundation for your hospitality and kindness. Now let’s do Africa proud.

Good night from America!
