First Day at Site

The first thing I saw after waking up and looking out of my window was one of the most beautiful birds I have ever seen in my life, a lilac-breasted roller.

Birds were chirping, cows were mooing, and chickens were crowing. I took a bucket bath,

and set up housekeeping. Then I went for a walk and saw my school for the first time.

I met around 15 learners, who surprised me with how well they already spoke English. Since it's the weekend, there are no teachers around, but I already feel lucky to call this beautiful place home for the next two years.
