I've been super busy over the last two weeks, what with going to Cornwall, Coll and my friend paying a last minute visit from Spain! But here's your update at long last!
I have 3 partners: Isaac, Heather and Ashleigh. There are alos 2 volunteers down the road at Durbanville Creche: Georgia and Rebecca. When we go out, we spend 2/3 days in Jo'burg getting to know places and we get to go to the National Apartheid Museum as well as sorting out basics like getting an African phone. After that, we all seperate and go off to our projects where we spend all our time with our partner/s. At Xmas, there is a tradition of all the South African volunteers going to Cape Town and meeting up there, which I hope we'll be doing! And my friend Sarah who I met on selection (and spent a week in Cornwall with) has been moved last minute with her partner to SA! Which might mean we get to go travelling together which would be marvelous!
I've decided after some of the talks we had on Coll, to stop posting on my blog. I might start up again when I'm out there and I know more about the legal side of things and the confidentality of the kids/staff and what-not, but for now, I'm not going to post anymore so I don't break any rules or anything like that. Hopefully I'll do a last blog before I go :)
26 days.
