Today was a public holiday so I paid a visit to a local family I’ve got to know. I’d been saving some magazines from the UK, sent by my sister, for them and today seemed a good a day as any to take them round. The children were so excited and it was lovely to spend some time reading with them.
Girls Being Girls
The girls started off by doing a quiz to find out what kind of friend you are by answering ‘yes’ and ‘no’ to a series of questions. From this point of they shouted, ‘YES!’ after every sentence and then fell about laughing. It really was adorable.
Two Gigglers
The boys were keen to escape the girls and talk football.

The eldest boy and girl thanked me by reciting a Swahili poem about the importance of drinking milk. They really are a lovely family!

Ahh, this is so sweet! Glad to be spreading the commercial delights of Miley and friends to these uncorrupted young minds. What kind of friends were they – perfect pals, sweet sistas or gigglin’ girls?
Really, really cute. Girls are girls wherever you are in the world
Sooo cute! We should put that pic on our letters page.
Think you’re doing a fantastic job out there.

Glad you like the pics Girl Talk-ers! You should so make these little ladies famous on your letters page, they would fall over!
Hi Elizabeth,
My name is Martin and I am writing to you on behalf of a website that I am currently involved in starting up. We aim to provide prospect volunteers with all the information they need in order to feel confident in their choice of organisation, position and destination, as well as inspire people to make the jump and try out volunteering.
As a part of that, I was wondering whether you might be interested in answering a few questions and perhaps sharing any advice you may have for people who are considering to volunteer.
If you think you might have time to do this, I’d love to hear from you. You can reach me through info@volunteeringinfo.org, and you can view the website I’m representing at http://www.volunteeringinfo.org.
Thanks, and keep up your amazing work!
Martin Jonsson
Ps – I really like your blog name. It reminds me of an old internet sensation: http://uploads.ungrounded.net/147000/147559_kenya3.swf – “Ken’ya believe it!”
