Spa Day

This morning, Wairimu surprised us with pedicures at the spa! We started off learning about holistic healthcare and acupressure/acupuncture and then she wanted to do a demo so I volunteered and got to have a reflexology treatment. Basically, each point in your foot is connected to an organ in your body and by applying pressure to each, you can promote total body healing. She was also able to tell where I had tension or problems in my body from the way each pressure point felt and she taught me how to do it on other people (get ready momma!). It's so cool, she was spot on haha! After the spa we went to a HUGE Masai Market outside of Nairobi and we ate lunch and shopped for a few hours. Then, we came back for our last dinner on the compound:( Wairimu bought us all a little present and gave us a card with our favorite animal on it, it was so sweet! We sat with her and laughed about things that have happened over the past month, and I realized how much we have done and what an incredible experience this has been.
Grandma, if you're reading this, I want you to know how truly grateful I am that you have given me such an amazing opportunity. It's something I'll never forget for the rest of my life and I would have never been able to have such a life changing experience without your help. I love you so much and am forever grateful.
