We had our first official planning meeting last week and I am happy that we will be staying somewhere with access to water. I am not sure what the toilet situation will be, but at least I will be able to brush my teeth and wash my face. This will be good for our teacher/learners too as we will be able to provide lunch for them when they come for the workshops.
Last Thursday was also our first Portuguese language class. Our teacher is Carla and she brought her niece Clara to help us with our pronunciation. I have decided to call myself Lena after my middle name Lynne so that the Mozambicans will have an easier time pronouncing it. I think Heather would be too difficult - not only is the /th/ strange but the hard /h/ at the beginning would be too much for them. So Lena it is!
Bem dia!
Lena
