Still here
Hey everyone, hope everyone is well. Things are still going very well here. Ive got a few projects starting up that im very excited about. The biggest is a mushroom project with an HIV/Aids group. We are getting funds to construct 5 mushroom house in 5 villages, which is great nutrition and income for people living aids and its decreasing the dependence on the resources inside the national park. Im also doing 3 small-scale tree nurseries and education on better agricultural practices, which is something I never thought I would be doing, being from a city and never steping foot on a farm until Malaw. Im going to start a small-scale beekeeping project with my watchman, who is probably the most honest, good-hearted, and hard-working person I have ever known and one of my best friends, I really want to help him have his own business soo he can support his family of 10. So I finally went to lake malawi which is even nicer than I thought it would be. The water is crystal clear and the beaches are soo nice. We swam, cooked, sat around fire and played games, it was a good time. So Im back in Lilongwe cause this 17 Yo kid stole my bike from my backyard when I was home with my door open. I was able to follow the track for bout 2 hours because all paths are sand and I could tell he was headed to town, so I was able to call ahead to villages and the police and got my bike back in 2 days, but they stole everything off of it so im here to fix it for at least the 3rd time. Pictures will come next week, fo sho
