GOODBYE is always a SEE YOU AGAIN

Now after exactly 42 days in Kenya it is time to say goodbye. What a time it has been for us. As you might have followed during the past weeks in the blog, we had many extraordinary and exceptional experiences.

After having given so much time and energy day by day towards all the projects and beyond, I have asked myself what we will take with us:

• We have gained huge amounts of personal experiences for ourselves
• We have faced overcome many challenges of the most different sort
• We have gained lots of friends in a far away country
• We have received lots of recognition for our work
• We have had the grateful opportunity of seeing/experiencing this b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l country

For all these small and big wonders I’m so grateful to be counted as part of the ‘We’.

I regard myself as a very lucky person to have been given this one in a lifetime opportunity to be part of this awesome project, to everybody who has been part / contributed to ConTribute Kenya 2013:

“MY DEEPEST AND SINCERE THANK YOU TO EVERYBODY WHO HAS CONTRIBUTED TO MAKE THIS IDEA/DREAM COME TO LIFE”!!!

In light of saying the words of ‘THANKS’ I want to also push out some words which have been nagging on me for quite some time: “LET’S SUSTAIN”.

The thing I have personally learned most about the projects is that ‘Time’ and ‘Know-How’ are the two most sustainable things one can do to help the local population in countries like Kenya.

In the home country of Obama’s father let’s do it again;

ConTributeKenya 2014 –‘Yes -WE CAN’

So, see you again next year ‘Oh Kenya The Beautiful’
