My journey of disruptive change-making. All posts by lexisalt. April 23, 2015. I am leaving tomorrow. I am actually leaving my home for 8 months tomorrow. I can’t believe it! I don’t think it has actually sunk in yet. It has gone by so fast. Guess I better start packing 😛. I am dreading saying good bye to my family tomorrow. It is going to be so hard. See you in two days Canada! View all 8 comments. The Final Stretch: Endings and Beginnings. April 9, 2015. This amazing journey has passed by so quickly!

My journey of disruptive change-making. The Final Stretch: Endings and Beginnings. April 9, 2015. I can’t believe that I have 15 days until I am on a plane back to Canada! This amazing journey has passed by so quickly! Unfortunately, I recently had a lot of really bad migraines. Luckily, I am feeling a lot better now! And I have finally finished my last essay of my undergrad! Adventures in Senegal with Friends. 5 thoughts on “ The Final Stretch: Endings and Beginnings. April 9, 2015 at 11:51 am. You mean...

Tabaski | Making Waves
https://lexisalt.wordpress.com/2014/10/17/tabaski
My journey of disruptive change-making. October 17, 2014. I tried to take some pictures but it does not do the sheer volume of sheep justice. After Tabaski, there was very few sheep to be seen, given that they had all been slaughtered. Never-ending sea of sheep on my way home from work. The evening was my favourite part: everyone got dressed up in their special Tabaski clothes and I got to wear the dress that Marie gave me. Wolof clothing is absolutely gorgeous! My host family 🙂.

My journey of disruptive change-making. September 17, 2014. Mon séjour au Sénégal (my stay in Senegal) so far has been defined by small victories. To be honest, I haven’t received any real work yet at my job at CNCR (Conseil National de Concertation et Cooperation des Ruraux). It is an agricultural organization, with the goal of building local capacity for rural farmers. A description of the work CNCR has done in 20 years. In order to stay positive, I am trying to focus on the small victories:. Traffic) ...

Shifts in Perspective | Making Waves
https://lexisalt.wordpress.com/2015/01/18/shifts-in-perspective
My journey of disruptive change-making. January 18, 2015. Some funny/cool things that have happened since I have been back:. I went to the market with Maman and impromptu decided to get henna done. It was my very first time doing this, so it was quite a joy. I was skyping with my friend Chelsea when I saw a mouse run across my room. She witnessed my shocked expression. I got my uncle to help me but we were not able to find it and it is still missing 😛. I’m Coming Home. Le temps passe vite! Enjoy every m...

I’m Coming Home | Making Waves
https://lexisalt.wordpress.com/2014/12/02/im-coming-home
My journey of disruptive change-making. I’m Coming Home. December 2, 2014. I wasn’t planning to, but I have decided to come home for Christmas (thanks to my parents for the early Christmas present of my flight home)! Work friends: Prospère, Jean and Tutti. Friends and family back home, 14 days and counting! I feel like a little kid who can’t wait for Christmas again…though let’s be real, I have always been that way 😛 But this year, I have even more to look forward to 🙂. Shifts in Perspective →.

Adventures in Senegal with Friends | Making Waves
https://lexisalt.wordpress.com/2015/03/05/adventures-in-senegal-with-friends
My journey of disruptive change-making. Adventures in Senegal with Friends. March 5, 2015. I took my sister and three of my cousins to visit La Statue de la Renaissance. It was pretty fun and there was a great view of the city! We toured around the first couple of levels; I might go back so I can go to the top and take some pictures of Dakar. The people who made these art pieces are incredibly talented. It was a great experience! Le temps passe vite! The Final Stretch: Endings and Beginnings →. Adventure...

Swimming Lessons | schirin oeding
https://schirinoeding.wordpress.com/2014/10/20/swimming-lessons
Under a peregrine star. October 20, 2014. Life at university has felt like a series of dips into a deep, deep pool. The bottom is still murky, but the possibility of diving, deeper and deeper, is exciting. There are gems and secret doors, portals, to be found. It’s a process of exploration, and experimentation of again and again refining my ability to notice and see. What drives someone to keep studying (at a university, in this case)? Is it the possibility of a brilliant career? And yes, well, who cares...
