hello from mozambique. This is the first day we have internet courtesy of Eric's ingenuity. Let's say our first few days in Mozambique have been interesting.
We already ran into trouble on the day we arrived when we sat around the airport for 30 minutes with nobody to pick us up. Fortunately my parents and sister had forced me to get international roaming as i was able to call the coordinator and discover to our horror that everyone was expecting us tomorrow! But they rallied the troops and were able to whisk us away to the faculty pad (which we first sat by the curbside for 20 minutes) until we eventually got transferred to the resident house. talk about a miscommunication. This place is pretty awesome though. 4 bedrooms, huge living room but the best thing about it is our fortress door. 2 locks, 2 chain locks, and 2 barricade bars! It takes a while just to set up this place but short of breaking down the door, this thing is solid.
Over these last few days, we have found multiple problems in this house. First the internet, than one or both of the washers, and now the telephone. But we are surviving and turning this place into a clean bachelor pad. Cooking our own meals, hanging out. Have actually been doing a lot of reading of random novels other residents have left behind.
will continue to drop intermittent posts.
