I found out last week that i get to travel to Burundi this July with church. Africa, here i come again!

Burundi is one of the smallest (maybe?), poorest, and most conflict-ridden nations in the world. You may not have heard of it before, but you probably know its neighbor, Rwanda, which shares similar problems between the Hutu and Tutsi people. Our group also plans to help the Twa people who are native to the area but have been forced into the mountains.

Anyway, i still have a lot to learn about Burundi, but i think it will be a great trip. probably grueling and amazing.
