This is why I came...



We walked into a low income town today and when I say low income, I mean subsisting on almost nothing.  I walked around feeling embarrassed to be there, feeling that they thought I was so arrogant and rich white person.  But, most Namibians in this shanty-like town (not in a derogatory way) were friendly and curious.  I'll explain more in an upcoming blog, because this blog itself took forty-five minutes to complete because of the weak internet.
