Thursday 27th Not travelling for once so chilling
out at the orphanage. Spring cleaned the house – at 3m x 4m in total it did not
take long!! Then some hand washing. Lunch time I dropped to Kiranga Polytechnic
who were still working to help Judy Zou a new volunteer from China with a
funding proposal to Global Ed the VSO linked charity that I am now on the
committee of. Cost her lunch too which was good J.
Then back home to try and catch up on my diploma.
Friday more of the same and a trip to the Kibe’s to sit
under a tree and chat. It is a bit cold here now as it is officially winter.
(Think May in the UK) can be overcast and as low as 15 degrees but still good.
I have however finally taken t wearing a fleece occasionally. Even I am cold.
The Kenyans are wearing coats, jumpers and woolly hats!
Tuesday 3rd – short notice to get to a VSO
workshop on training Board of Governors. I managed to rally 2 of our board to
go. It would have been good to get the Chairman there but due to e-mail
confusion we were not notified until late and he has a business to run so could
not make it. It was good to meet other boards of youth polytechnics and see we
shared many of the challenges.
A night at a nice hotel with a real toilet and a shower
never mind a warm shower – luxury!!
Rest of the week normal stuff.
Some of the Class of 2012 at IYP
