About Me

hey hi hello!

Welcome to my little corner of the web. My name is Kelly Summers and this is a personal blog about life, adventure, and the little things that make life beautiful. I am a Peace Corps volunteer living in the wonderful country of Tanzania, working as an Agricultural and Environmental Extension Agent. This blog will serve as an avenue to share my experiences and travels! Karibu sana!

If you ever feel so inclined, I love snail mail, beef jerky, and stickers ;)
