Things I May or May Not Miss

Fresh fruits and vegetables every day.
The sound of the neighbor’s new roosters crowing at 4:30 a.m.
Construction workers finishing the duplexes across the yard.
The socio-political system.
The sound of the main gate door squeaking open and closed.
Cold water showers.
Internet use by file size.
The sound of the flushing toilet in the duplex behind my window.
Intermittent electricity.
Experiencing something new every day.
Occasional water.
The foam mattress on my bed.
High-stepping over the rat glue.
Learning about God from a different cultural perspective.
The White tax.
Hearing the children scream “mzungu” every time I walk by.
Hugging orphans.
