Last two weeks

What have happened in Sigowet the last two weeks? A sad thing was that a colleague at Resam was dismissed because his class performed poorly on the last exams. The picture shows a lunch we had in his flat before he left for Kisumu to try to get a new job. We had ugali and sukuma.


Ronis comes every now and then in the evening to greet us at home. The girls' dorm is just next to our house so she sometimes drops by on her way back to evening classes. Here she was lucky finding us in the middle of baking a chocolate cake and she got to finnish the leftovers.

Last weekend I went to meet the principal's family. We were supposed to join a Harambee (a gathering to collect money for schoolcfees, funerals, weddings etc), but unfortunately a member of the family died so it was postponed. The picture shows Alfred (the principal at Resam) and three of his children.

We have also had tea at one of the cafes in Sigowet (our favourite one, where they now serve us tea without sugar without haveing to ask for it! We are good customers!) with Naftal. He is fluent in Norwegian after studying music for two years in Volda, Norway. He is home for holidays and will return to Norway in a month

We also had a guy coming to the staff-room one day to sell underwear. Jennifer, Martina and I found some nice bras!
