Shannon from Rocks In My Dryer talks to us about Africa — On Video!

Do you wish your blog would take you to Africa?

Shannon sure did NOT.

But she went anyway.

Apparently, many of you bloggers are the adventurous type… reading the comments on Jennifer’s recent post about her upcoming Compassion International trip to the Dominican Republic, it is clear that many of you would love to go on such a mission. Well, you’re braver than I. Janice and I were very happy to offer the opportunity to Jennifer instead of go ourselves.

But Shannon was not one who would ask for such a trip. Watch our first interview segment with her to find out more!

    Kelly, we so happy you’re enjoying the interviews. They were so much fun to do.

    Meeting Shannon was amazing! And yes, her Uganda trip was such a fantastic mission. I think the Compassion International organization is brilliant for taking bloggers on these trips.

    I’m getting the biggest kick out of these interviews. Thanks for giving us the chance to see in action and hear from our favorite bloggers.

    Shannon changed many lives with that Uganda trip. What a great use for the blogosphere.
