Eunice Mbugua’s excitement and anticipation surged as she embarked on her first-ever flight from Nairobi to Springfield, Missouri, initiating her master’s journey through The KENYA Airlift Program.

The breathtaking views from the window, as the plane gracefully soared above the clouds, etched unforgettable moments into her memory. As the plane descended into Springfield, she couldn’t help but marvel at the incredible adventure that marked the commencement of her new life in America.

Landing at Missouri State University in Springfield, she was met with unexpected differences from Kenya. The clean, orderly streets and the apparent absence of people outdoors presented a serene contrast. The strict adherence to traffic rules stood out, as did the sight of individuals confidently wearing very light summer clothes. These observations marked the beginning of Eunice’s journey into the distinctive cultural landscape of her new American surroundings.

Reflecting on her initial days, she recounts the challenges of navigating the various buildings on campus. However, she has since seamlessly adjusted to life in Springfield. Despite the ache of missing her family, friends, and the familiar flavors of Kenyan cuisine, the realization that she is in the land of opportunities provides her with both comfort and the resilience to persist.
