Arrived!
Hi everyone!
I can't believe I'm finally here! It seems like it has taken forever. The journey was very long, but fine.
Meeting the other volunteers and settling in the house was good. I managed to get a much needed sleep.
The next morning we were off to Agape. We walked in to find the younger children having breakfast, which we tried to help a little. Then we met Pamela, who is great, and runs Agape. We played with the younger children that morning and helped with lunch. Some of the older girls came home early from school due to there being no water so we took them for lunch, which was a good oppurtunity to learn a little about them. (I'm really struggling learning names!)
Later all the other children came back to Agape and we chatted for a while and then I helped with some homework.
So far so good!
