First of all. If you asked me a question in the comments earlier I answered them.
So, I've been living with a nice family in Katatura for the last 5 days. They're pretty poor, which is hard and thought-provoking, but they make ends meet, and are a good family. Their house was an old apartheid house which meant it originally was four small rooms (2 bedrooms, a kitchen and a sitting room) with no water or electricity. They've added another bedroom and a garage made out of tin (a lot of families there have made more legitimate additions) and they have electricity including a TV and a nice computer--but no internet, and a sink with running water in the kitchen, although the bathroom is outside. I don't have all that much time right now, I jsut wanted to let you know that I was alive and was learning a lot on this homestay. There are lots of interesting issues and stuff to wrestle with, as you can probably imagine. More later, probably tomorrow--I'll post much more detailed summaries and such then. Miss you all!
Thanks baby, miss you too.
