Learning how to use binoculars. I wish I brought a pair of these! With Hoja and her mom, Awa, and Robert. My short time VSO sitemate.
Jugal and Fafa. My sister and brother. Standing in the corn field.
Yura. The youngest. Very spunky!
Grr!
Fanta. Her mom is in Senegal. She's been with us for a while now. Just kicken it. So cute.
Awa. My aunts daughter who has also been staying with us lately to help out. Compounds are constantly changing.
Baay. My host father. Coming back from praying.
Host mom, Dado, and some of the kids. Certainly not the best photo faces but it was the brightest.
Ndey and Maddie. Mother and son.
Jama and Isatou. Mother and daughter.
Ndey, holding some 25L of water.
Baay. With permission to take his picture this time.
Maam. My host grandmother, Fatim. An amazing and strong woman.
Our kitchen.
My backyard, featuring a flamboyant tree planted last year.
My Leuceana tree from last year. So tall!
Gayende, checking out the camera.
And my bed. It's looking nice these days. I have to make it every night and strip it every morning because black stinging ants fall between the wall and mosquito net, somehow crawl under the net or through the holes, and sting me in my sleep! But this new system has been better, is more open and spacious. Kind of like a flat in Manhattan now...
