Here are pictures from when I lived in Dakar,Senegal and Guatemala City, Guatemala. 

This is my host sister, Fatou, and my host brothers enjoying dinner, ceeb y geen (Wolof for fish and rice), a popular and yummy Senegalese dish.
One of my favorite weekends in Senegal  was spent with an NGO dedicated to Women's Literacy. At the end of the weekend, the whole village gathered to listen and dance to live djembe music.
Prior to graduate school, I worked at Hogar Rafael Ayau, an orphanage in Guatemala City. For Christmas we organized a play about Jesus' birth and the  Three Wise Men. Guess which role these little ones played? 

During Christmas, after the play, the community brought in a surprise "Santa Claus" bearing  presents and sweets for every single child. Here is Eduardo guarding his new toy from me.
