“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain

Cordelia’s Year - the quick summary
January: Started off the year at Obama's Inauguration with millions of my closest friends.
February: Jetted off to Africa to visit Mozambique, South Africa, Zambia, Swaziland and Kenya to see Princeton in Africa Fellows and scout new partnerships.
March: Arrived back in NY just in time to celebrate the big 4-0 with a big group of my friends who have been with me in the many stages of my life.
May: Flew to San Francisco for work and Oregon for fun. Got to catch up with wonderful old friends.
July: Off again this time to the Montreal Jazz Festival for a 40th birthday celebration with high school friends, Karen, Karen and Catherine.
August: Summer educational journey to Israel and the West Bank to get a deeper story of the situation there.
Israel was the 40th country I've been to and I got there on my 40th year! Not bad!
Fall: Leaf peeping with family in the Berkshires, Thanksgiving in DC...
All year: Being executive director of Princeton in Africa. Helping send 25 recent grads to work with service organizations throughout Africa. Living in NY. Commuting to Princeton.
Happy Holidays!
