This means so much. Don’t worry, (*spoiler*) I did make it through all 75 days! Many more videos to come. It makes me happy to know you’re watching 🥹

@@oliviaheck1405 I definitely love watching! And I'm so glad to hear you made it through the 75 days 💪 That's awesome! I can't wait to see the rest of the videos 🤗

I LOVE comments like this. I can’t believe you are all the way in Brasil 🥰 I was also very sad when I stopped posting and it’s been so fun to relive the journey while editing and posting them again. Thank you for watching

I wish I would have seen your comment sooner! I hope you have been LOVING your first month in Mell!! The tables are from Ikea and lasted me all four years of college. After using them as a coffee table in my dorm, I used them as side tables in my apartments! www.ikea.com/us/en/p/lack-side-table-white-stained-oak-effect-70319028/#content Having a futon was crucial for us if we ever had company. We could pull that out, move the Ikea tables, and add an air mattress. I kept all my shoes in a long, flat storage container under the futon to save room in my closet. This was super helpful. Getting a plastic dresser to go in the closet also made the most of the room in there. My roommate and I both had a rolling cart we kept on either side of the sink for toiletries/bathroom items. We also had a makeshift kitchen area under her bed (the futon was under mine). Mell has a LOT of built in storage as far as dorms go, so mostly just utilize what they give you. I planned on doing a finished dorm tour, but we got sent home for covid before I could ): I do have a few other videos that show our dorm slightly more lived in and used, if you’re interested in seeing that!

This means so much to me!! I am working on editing the rest of them! Life got busy and this unfortunately got put on the back burner. Hoping to start posting them in a week (:

@@oliviaheck1405 can’t wait to see more of your videos in the nearby future! Hope we can get to talk more!😁

I was doing 75 hard from September until right after Thanksgiving. I didn’t have time to edit all of these videos until I was already done with 75 hard, so these videos are a couple months behind real life hahahah

Good luck!! It is such a great challenge!

So exciting to hear you’ll be doing this route! It’s amazing. We did the hike in early June and the huts got extremely cold. I believe we had -30 degree sleeping bags that could zip all the up around our heads. We did not use crampons, just good hiking boots and walking sticks. You probably won’t run into much ice or snow though! We got back to Marangu gate around 2:30 pm, but we had to stay at the gate for a long time having lunch and giving our information for certificates! Glad you enjoyed the video! Good luck!!

It was a little ways past Arusha coming from Moshi Town. According to my photos from there it’s in a city called Meserani right along the highway. I don’t know the name of it but the snake park was right across the street if i remember correctly!

We had many inexperienced people who successfully did this climb. I think the main reason that this route is considered harder is because of the limited acclimatization time compared to other routes. Even the most experienced hikers can’t really train for altitude which is why acclimatization is super important. I think you’d be just fine!

we have plenty of people who are secure in their masculinity and accepting of other people who are more than happy to keep drinking it (:

@@oliviaheck1405 lol, sure

I think that depends on what you want. If the hourly pay is high enough then a no tipping policy may be okay, but I make 95% of my money off tips. Private golf clubs will have a lot more regulars (since you can only golf if you’re a member) and public clubs will have different people each day with the regulars mixed in here and there. I personally love working at a public golf club because I get a mix of both. With that being said, public golf course will have a lot more teenagers (i would assume) that you don’t make much money off of, but there are also people in there early 20’s, like me, who like to have fun and pay well most of the time. I also love the more laid back vibe of the golf club I am at and feel like I would be soooo stressed if I had to keep up an “elite” persona. I think a good in between for an “elite” club and a public golf course would be something like a private club. All that being said, I have only ever worked at this public golf course so that’s the only experience I have to speak on. I do absolutely love it though.

I hope your first day was amazing!!

omg how did it go

Hi! i’m glad you enjoyed the video (: Being a waitress/bev cart girl was the first job I ever had aside from babysitting and lifeguarding and was definitely nervous at first, but you definitely learn how to sell things and use the system to ring customers up fairly quickly. you’ll learn tips and tricks over time to increase your sales and give people what they want. and yes this job can be exhausting on busy summer days and more physically demanding than people think. you are in the heat (or freezing cold this time of year), on your feet quite a bit, doing all of the work yourself, and having different conversations all day. I’m so tired and dirty and sweaty after a super long day, and it can be stressful when you have large groups getting lots of different things, but I personally think it is worth it.

@@oliviaheck1405 oh, I got it, thank you!

hahahaha basically. i usually just ask if powerade is okay and sometimes i just give them the powerade without asking 😂

sorry this sounded weird but i have a roomate studying abroad there as well and wanted to ask you some questions about the visa process!

hahahaha yes you can! i will say one of the program directors is from Tanzania and has many connections high up and she was responsible for most of the visa process.

yes! i always give their change back unless they tell me in advance to keep it. even if it is only a dollar or two, it’s better to give it back to them than just assume that it’s my tip

we went with zara tours!! we did one day and one night in Ngorogoro Crater and two days and one night in the Serengeti

I saw your previous posts, I know what you're up to 😆😆
