Making it to malawi. A few snippets from my time in malawi and the months leading up to it. Wednesday, 5 November 2008. So the weekend came and went pretty quickly and for a moment there I truly believed I was about to lose some much loved limbs to frostbite…but all in all the bungee jump wasn’t so bad AT ALL. Watching the videos back I really was as calm as everyone said I was so maybe I’m not so incapable after all! The first tick on my list). The second I left the platform I realised what was happenin...

Making it to malawi. A few snippets from my time in malawi and the months leading up to it. Tuesday, 29 September 2009. Inevitably I had to leave and he cried and cried and cried, no one even picked him up when I left - this isn't really a comforting culture and the older kids, even the five year olds are unbelievably tough. One week left in Malawi. Thursday, 24 September 2009. It was yesterday that I noticed one of my favourite little girls, Grace, had not turned up and I mentioned this to Wyson, their ...

Making it to malawi. A few snippets from my time in malawi and the months leading up to it. Saturday, 30 August 2008. Here I am following in the footsteps of my grandparents and heading out to Malawi and I have just begun the rewarding process of fundraising to get me there. My grandparents had what was known at the time as a 'houseboy.' His name was Joseph and became very close to my family, so close that he named all of his children after us! There are over half a million children in Malawi that have b...

Making it to malawi. A few snippets from my time in malawi and the months leading up to it. Wednesday, 6 May 2009. Wow it has been absolutely ages since I updated here but plenty has been going on. The discrepancies with Orphancare Malawi turned out to be too true to ignore and Real Gap pulled the Orphan Care project. There has been much drama surrounding how my trip will continue since this decision was made but pulling out wasn't an option. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Making it to malawi. A few snippets from my time in malawi and the months leading up to it. Tuesday, 6 October 2009. So my final night in Malawi is upon us and it has been a really lovely if not painfully hot couple of days. We had four new arrivals yesterday and said our goodbyes to Anna and Josh. John took me to Kevin’s house who in actual fact is called Calvin! So here is to the end. Most of all I will remember that little face and the fact there there are so so so many Calvins in Malawi. Yesterday I ...

Making it to malawi. A few snippets from my time in malawi and the months leading up to it. Saturday, 3 October 2009. Yesterday I said my goodbyes to Namakoma orphanage with a sports day hosted by myself and Anna. I say sports day but we use the term pretty loosely.chaos may be more suitable. We had a bottle lid and spoon race, an egg hunt, a sack race and a three legged race that never quite made it off the ground. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Making it to malawi. A few snippets from my time in malawi and the months leading up to it. Thursday, 1 October 2009. Today I was working at Monkey Bay Hospital, we are limited by what we can do whether we are qualified or not. So basically it means doing blood pressures with broken stethescopes, weighing people on broken scales and taking temperatures with faulty thermometers. The kids don't complain in the childrens ward, they just sleep and lie there very still no matter how bad they feel. There w...

Making it to malawi. A few snippets from my time in malawi and the months leading up to it. Sunday, 13 March 2011. So much has changed in my life since I returned from Malawi. I came back with the confidence to find a new job and make steps towards a new future. I am now studying Childhood Studies in Leeds, living alone and seeing my family and friends at home when I can.
