village visit


I had the opportunity to spend a day in a local village called N’golobougou. It was a cramped 1 ½ hour truck ride over rough roads to get there. In most of the villages the people mostly only speak Bambara, and there isn’t electricity or running water. They don’t have some of our simple luxuries of life in town such as boulangeries to get fresh bread. I got to visit at the home of a family. On the way back we stopped to load the truck with wood. It was a really good experience, but I am happy for now to be living in town.



Ah... everyone enjoys a nap in the afternoon here. Its so hot that you can't do much else.
