I am doing well. We enjoy local food and try to keep warm with double socks, winterjacket, gloves and hot waterbottles. ..quite the difference from Australia. Those who know me well can imagine how stretching that is for me..at least it was in the beginning. I am getting used to wear thermal underwear and have my jacket on inside as outside. I guess that's just part of the deal.

I really love the culture though, the people are superfriendly and hospitable. The food is amazing and I enjoy spicy dishes and try every recommendation from the locals.

We have been doing various things, just being flexible with schedules and timeframes...it's awesome. We do healthcare and teachings and whatever is reqired. We travel quite a bit so it is never boring. It's really a new experience for me to see living conditions in this place that I couldn't imagine to face everyday. Although I cannot go into details, it's an eyeopening experience and I am much happier and content with being cold and uncomfortable ...but still have the finances or possibilities to get warm, have a bed and have hot and plenty food !!

I love my life - and now even more.
