Today, we had a very successful and productive day in Hawasa. My highlight of the day was going to my dad's friend Tesfaye's house to shoot a video of his niece for Role Models in Literacy! Her name is Boge (pronounced BO-gay) and she is in the second grade at her local elementary school.
This is going to be a great addition to the growing library of RMIL videos. Hopefully seeing a girl in a developing country pursuing her education and showing her love for reading will inspire young, less-fortunate kids in similar countries to do the same.
Luckily there were also two boys (6 and 11) in the house we went to, so I recorded a few videos of them as well. I will try to upload at least one of the videos before I come back to the US. Stay tuned!
