Getting on the bus and driving to Toronto I didn't really feel like I was really leaving. Once I got on the Ethiopian flight I knew it was official. I've never been out of the country before and this was my big first step. My first stamp in my passport. It felt so surreal seeing Rwanda while driving to our guesthouse. Beautiful, very green, lots and lots of trees, good energy, and positive vibes. I am very thankful to be here and to see this beautiful country. My first night was great. Got to sit down and eat and afterwards got to get some well deserved sleep. I slept really good and woke up to the birds singing. Yesterday was a amazing day but I know it only gets better from here. Thank you Rwanda for welcoming me with open arms. I am very grateful.

    About Janaé

    My name is Janae' Leonard and I'm a senior Theatre major at Buffalo State. Since I was a little girl I always dreamed of traveling and seeing the world. The one place where I dreamed of going was to Africa. The motherland, the place where life started. I want to go to Rwanda to experience different cultures, hear stories, and learn how to not only love myself but how to give and show love to others in different ways. I want to show people in Rwanda that they matter and their stories matter. It took me a while to understand that I mattered and that my story matters and so I want to show what I learned and express it through love. I plan to go to Rwanda open minded and open hearted. I want to take in as much as I can and bring it back home with me where I can share everything I learned and felt through story, song, acting and other mediums.
