克服了重重困难，漫长的旱季之后迎来了雨季，援外事业也在所有队友的努力下绿意盎然。</p><p class="ql-block"> 正如自己预料的，一年时光匆匆而过，离别总是依依难舍。不畏艰苦，甘于奉献，圆满完成援外任务回国，如今已近六年了，心还时常飘回到东非高原，那里的山峦叠嶂，高天白云，那里孩子纯真的眼神，同事温暖的笑容，善良的陌生人；那里高大的仙人掌树，绚烂的蓝楹花、三角梅、火焰花；那里一切的一切，终将变成遥远而美好的记忆，萦绕在梦中……</p><p class="ql-block"> 最近有同事又要踏上援非征程，去到遥远的阿斯马拉。我匆忙整理这些照片，想要打印出来带给曾经一起工作一年，度过无数个温暖瞬间的厄特友人，也分享给朋友们呵。</p> <p class="ql-block"><b>想念的味道</b></p><p class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block">远离了春夏秋冬四季的变迁</p><p
