Aiyana Adshead

Bonjour! My name is Aiyana Yuki Adshead and I am originally from Canada, but now live in the Seattle area. I am half Japanese, half Canadian and 17 years old. I decided to finish high school early this year in order to go to Burundi, Africa. Ever since I was a child I was very inspired to dedicate my life to service and improving the lives of others in developing countries, particularly those in Africa. Other than my calling for changing the world- I enjoy writing, performing, feeling & creating music. It is an essential part of my life along with art, my “peace time” in nature, and the relationships I have in my life with friends and family (which are all family to me). Life is a beautiful mystery and I’m so excited to get lost in it all doing one fulfilling thing after the other, country after country and then sharing all my experiences and blessings with the world.

So I am hoping through these summaries you will have learned a little bit about our team and all the incredible things we plan to do in the beautiful country of Burundi.

Thanks for all your love and support.
