Day 1 - The Beginning

There once were some girls from Roedean,

Who weren’t so sure where they’d been.

Then they arrived,

And it opened their eyes.

It was something new they had seen.
 

Today we arrived at the London Mission and dived right in. Information overload. Far more then we expected. Sarah and I (Rosa) were the first chefs. Sarah attempted to salad and I made brilliant Cous Cous. Before the cooking started we were all SHOCKED by the toilets (long drops!!!!!) it was different but cool.

We had an introductory brief from Megan, Wendy and Charity. They are involved with Peace Corps as well as Phedisang. We learned some basic Sepedi words and our attempts were laughed at mercilessly.

Everyone is exhausted and drifting off to bed.

It’s certainly been a packed day!
