Aafrikas olles rääkis mu etiooplasest sõber, et üks meie toetatavatest lastest, kes eelmise aasta keskel ära kadus, on tagasi Soddos ja tahaks nii väga koolis käimisega jätkata. Kadumine tähendab seda, et laps ei ilmu ühel päeval enam kooli ja järele pärides ei tea...

Blue Monday. School day was tiring:) Made tests in different grades and the results are not nearly satisfying (at least not for me) We thought of buying the goats now but seems that no market today, but we are active to get them 🙂 Depending of the price i think one...

The Sabbath is over and I'm now in bed. Our day began around 7am leaving the house. We went to town and had breakfast, after 8am we reached the church. Soon we left to a place quite close to Sodo. Maybe 1 hr walk. In that area there were two small rivers which both...

Yesterday the pastor’s family came here with bread and praising. They showed us traditional African dances and gave Merle a new name for her birthday. I suggested Yebelai or feminine form of it Belaynesh(that means dominant in amharic) but they named her Mari. Comes...

Today the school owner Bereket and executive director Nigusse came to Sodo. We were discussing what to buy with the money we took with us from est. For three thousand we are probably buying English books for all the students in the school. After discussing with them...

For Sabbath service we went to the biggest church in Awassa. The program was around 3,5 h. After that we went to the lake and ate all together 6 fish. After 6pm we went to different gold shops and got something for one special person. We were laughing all the time...

We’re in Awassa. In a hotel, just lying. Out here after a 3,5 h bus journey. It’s a big city and quite different from Sodo. Here are more cacti and it’s not so hilly. The city is nice, looks like Sotchi. We also went to the lake. I think an ornithologist would have...

Eile õhtul olime naabrite poole kohvile kutsutud. Sinna juurde oli ka kohalik roog mida pidi peoga võtma ja siis rusikas junniks pigistama ja otsast hammustama. See roog oli maitsev aga kohviga läks teisiti…. Lõhn oli väga meeldiv aga jooki juues selgus, et kohvi...

Yesterday i made a test for the 5th grade. When they saw me taking out the papers, they got excited and when i went home from school, one boy from the same grade told me: "Thank you for the test, it was really good!". Today all of them were excited to get them back....

Yesterday went to sleep around 8.30pm. I woke up at 11pm and was sure it was morning. Not too pleasant to find out that it wasn’t 🙂 It’s 8pm now and we’re both yawning. Merle asked a hairdresser to come to our house and she should be here already but we both would...

It’s Sunday. At 6am the noise started. Someone was preaching through the loudspeakers quite close here and all of this plus the songs weren’t too silent 🙂 Merle couldn’t sleep the whole night because of the malaria prophylaxis medicine. We were supposed to go and...

It’s Sabbath afternoon and Merle’s taking a Sabbath nap. Just finished washing the floor. The whole night it rained so i woke up several times, and around 6am got out of the bed. There is only a tin plate on the roof so even if it’s not raining heavily, it sounds like...

Can’t believe it’s just 8pm and i’m in bed, about to go to sleep 🙂 I guess it’s no wonder if you wake up 5am. It was raining the whole night and after 5am i just couldn’t sleep. Funny that even though i don’t like/know grammar, i like teaching it 😀 Here it’s not...

I’m on my break and have come back home. Sitting outside in a shadow with the laptop. No movement in the garden, probably they’re doing something inside or having a siesta 🙂 Our morning began before seven - cleaning and washing. Since I had a longer break I thought...

Kell on 19.05 istume laua taga enda kõhud täis söönud aga külalised tulevad äkki homme? Ootame külla bioloogia õpetajat Adane’t koos oma vennaga kes veel õpib. Adane on meid terved päevad kõikjal saatnud. Ull on hetkel minu voodis koos oma kirpudega keda ma veel...

Funny how time flies here. Still I feel like not much is done. Only the evenings seem to be long. After 7pm it’s totally dark and with that our day ends. We were just looking at the pics we’ve taken so far. If only we could also upload some. Europeans have a 'hidden'...

Finally, around 2-3 am we reached the airport. While standing in the queue we started to chat with a couple. It came out they had been in Sodo(the place we now are) for 1,5 years, working in a Christian hospital. Now they came back to stay in Addis and learn the...
