Nduip. The Zimbabwean dream that became reality

Nduip. Hello in Shona. I was most privileged to attend OTARG 2013 hosted in Zimbabwe. OTARG is a congress for OT’s, promoting Occupational Therapy is Africa. OT’s from around the world come to this conference such as the president of WFOT (World Federation of Occupational Therapy), and I was blessed to meet the likes of Jennifer Creek, Rosemary Crouch, Vivian Alers- we read their textbooks! We learn from their work. There are no words to describe this conference and the feeling that it has left me with. I have decided tom blog as much as I can when I can to get all my feelings out, and also for this incredible time to not just become a memory, but for it to be recorder so I can look back on this time and reflect on what it taught me, how it made me feel and the lessons I learnt from this experience. I deliberated on how I should go about blogging Zimbabwe, and I have decided to take a look at my experiences through activities that took place in Zimbabwe. And my feelings surrounding every event. I think this is the best way to collect and order my thoughts, because right now, my thoughts and feelings are all over the place!
