My very first post: Tanzania!

Hi World, I've never had a blog before so bare with me as I figure this all out.
I am starting this blog today because I want a memory of the Adventure I have been embarking on for 19 years so far. I see life as an adventure, a never ending road with lots of twists and turns.
Yesterday I found out that after years of hoping, wishing, dreaming, researching, and begging my Dad to say yes, I will be going to Africa this summer! I have been selected to do a medical internship in TANZANIA! The program is through projects abroad which has internships and volunteers all around the world doing work in orphanages, nature, hospitals, and classrooms in the many developing and third world countries. I wanted to start this blog to have a memory from the beginning of planning this adventure to the end.
I have a lot on my plate, I should really be studying organic chemistry right now instead, but foremost I have to choose which city to do my internship. I can either choose Arusha or Dar Es Salaam. Dar is the largest city in Tanzania and known for its beautiful beaches. Arusha is still a city but much more rural. It is the pedestal for Mt.Kilimanjaro. The projects abroad desk staff recommend that a pre-med student choose Dar Es Salaam because the internship is in the local teaching hospital. While there I would be treated the same as 3rd year interns in medical school in America are treated. I would conduct rounds, learn how to administer medication and do basic need work, and do outreach programs in the slums of the city. The city is also rated the safest city on the east coast of Africa. In Arusha, I wouldn't be able to do as much hands-on learning. However, I would be closer to national parks and surrounded by the more stereotypical African lifestyle.
I think I will choose Dar Es Salaam and then at the finish of my internship fly to Arusha and CLIMB MOUNT KILIMANJARO! so many bucketlist items getting scratched off at one time! I am researching different groups that do climbs, one I recently found was through REI. I really want my Dad and sister to come meet me and do it with me but it is very expensive.
I'm going through one of my biggest life changes right now and all of this decision making is SO HARD!
oh yeah and then there is the task of raising 6000 dollars to be able to do my internship!
Thanks for reading, if anyone has info or advice please share and keep my journey in your prayers.
