Misadventures

After graduating from high school in 2008, I spent a year in Johannesburg, South Africa attending a start-up prep school for Africans. The school was (and continues to be) called the African Leadership Academy, and my year there was one that, despite what I claim in my final post, changed who I am and how I see the world.

It also provided a wealth of classic misadventure stories, some of which were sent to my friends and family in a series of 11 emails. What follows are these emails—unabridged, unedited, and unchanged but for the addition of pictures.
