Back when I used to work with UNICEF Canada, I gave many school assembly presentations on Malawi. My objective then was coordinating the Trick or Treat program to build schools through elementary and middle school fundraising.
After each presentation and watching the mini video we provided the school children, I always wondered if I would ever get the chance to go to "one of the poorest countries in the world".
Now that it is happening, the feeling is surreal.
