In-Bound Nigerian Team is here!

On Tuesday, April 1st, the in-bound team from Nigeria arrived in Asheville. On Saturday, April 5th, our team was able to spend the day with with this wonderful group of people, kicking off our Nigerian experience.

We visited the Arboretum in Asheville, NC, and then had a delicious lunch at the Pisgah Inn. Although it was a very gloomy and rainy day, the Nigerians thoroughly enjoyed the areas flora and fog. They were also extremely cold!! Being used to 100+ degree temperatures, the low 40 degrees that they were experiencing was quite chilly!

Below is a picture of the Nigerian in-bound team, and our out-bound team at the Arboretum.
