Still truckin'


I’m still waiting. The visa application of note is in and awaiting a verdict... It’ll take a while though, so for now I try not to think too much. I think I say this all the time. It’s been such a long process to get it in. I thought maybe two months would cover it. But no. More like seven. Gah.
 In the meantime I have been spending some glorious days on the beach with friends lapping up the sunshine and jumping around in the waves. For the first time in about four years the river is also clean enough to swim in it – it looks divine – turquoise water with the sun sparkling off it.
There is also good news for Sustainable Coffee Bay; the charity that I’m trying to help out a little with funding proposals and whatnot. They had a meeting with a prominent donor organisation and have been invited to apply for funds for their various projects including pre-school education, recycling and entrepreneurship. So we are all currently getting a tad over-excited and draining our brains in the application.
On another note, village life takes some getting used to especially coming from a big city. More on that another time though since I’ve been staring at this screen for far too long.
