See you tomorrow Cameroon!

We learnt while we were here that saying “See you tomorrow” does not literally mean see you the next day, but can meet the day after or the day after that or just somewhere down the road. Well  - See you tomorrow Cameroon because I will be back here one day to see you.



Dinner at Down Beach

We’ve told quite a few of the people we have met here that we will be back one day and they immediately ask when because I think a lot of people come here, stay for awhile, and leave while saying they will be back but they do not return. I want to be one of those people that follows through on the statement of I will be back one day. So I’ve told people that I can’t guarantee when I will be back because I have to finish school, find a job, get more clinical experience, and earn some money so that I can afford to come back, but I want everyone reading this to help hold me to my promise to be back one day!

Lobe Falls

The last week of our adventures took us to two beach towns Limbe and Kribi. One with black sands, one with white sands, one English, one French but both pieces of paradise. We spent some time on the beaches relaxing and reflecting on my experiences here, went to the Limbe Wildlife Centre that rescues primates that are injured or being illegal kept or sold, had dinner on Down Beach watching the sunset, “climbed” Mount Cameroon (well really just trekked up a little bit), saw one if not the only waterfall in the world that falls directly into an ocean (Lobé falls), had another broken down bus and finally boarded a plane to start the journey home.

So here is a little goodbye letter to Cameroon, the people, BCCSDR, SAJOCAH, the Bamenda guest home and hotel, and the friends I have made that probably only begins to summarize my experience at my home away from home for the last 7 weeks.
