I traveled throughout Africa with the band I was playing with. I was embraced and loved by all of the people. It was a wonderful, life-changing experience to meet so many beautiful human beings. We hear so many negative things about Africa, but Africa is truly a beautiful place and I am so grateful to have had the experience of living and working there.
