The Roof of Africa


On March 15th I was awakened with tea at 11pm. After 4 days of strenuous hiking, my friends and I stumbled out of a restless nap to complete the final ascent of Mt. Kilimanjaro - the roof of Africa. After climbing all night we were in awe as the sun rose over Kili's sister, Malawi. It was a sight that I will never forget. Then we climbed another 2 hours to reach Uhuru Peak at almost 20k feet - we did it. Thank you Fataeli, thank you James, thank you Hanne - it was amazing.
