Photos!

I wish I could give you a long update on life here, but I don't have the time or the access to internet for it. We eat mango pretty much everyday, and at least 3 bananas as well. We haven't learned that much portuguese yet, and probably won't since it's really hard. So far we've done 9 interviews, and how more coming. So the study is going really well. However, it's still very hard to adjust to life here in Africa, with power cuts every once i a while, no water whenever you'd like a shower and not that much food in the stores, but we manage! =)
This weekend will be a nice weekend hopefully as we are checkin into a hotel with a pool. So we are doing just great here! And yes, Happy Thanksgiving! Hae some turkey and stuffing for me! Love your food, Elise!!
This is the first thing you see when you get of the bus in Tofo, the community we study
The crazy local bus
The little market
Preparing for an interview. Shouldn't complain!
Nice!
Hangin' laundry
Beautiful sunset from our house
Ready for a boat ride in Africa
This is how all the babies are carried. And I really mean ALL the babies!
Going to an african church!
And they sure loved to sing.

Hello

Have access to the internet for like a minute for just a quick update and no pics.
Swam with a whale shark the other day. That was awesome. Was right next to it!!!!
Otherwise we are doing just great here and enjoying Africa!!!
I'll give you an update soon!!!
Love,
Kicki

And more...

Here are more random pictures from Mozambique. It's a very very poor country, and unfortunately very hard to live in. Poor people and children everywhere and the look at us as see money. I feel like a walking dollar bill here on the street if Inhambane, like they've never seen a white person before (which they have).

Even though there's not a lot of food here and the standard of living is really poor, we're still in good spirits. I mean, should I complain when it's aroung 80 degrees everyday and sunny, while it's cold and dark in Sweden?! Don't think so! We've been here for over 2 weeks now, and it's weird to think that we're gonna be here for another 6 weeks. But we're planning ocean safari within the next week, swiming with whalesharks and mantarays (and hopefully dolphins). And then at the end of our stay here in Mozambique, we're going to Krügers National Park in South Africa to see the big five (fingers crossed).

Otherwise, we're doing just great here. can't wait for Christmas though, when we will be back in Sweden and eat some real food! I'll try to post as many pictures as I can, but the slow internet is really making it difficult. But here are more random pictures from Inhambane:

On our way to the beach with the local bus. A very interesting trip through rural Africa
And this is what we study, how tourism is affecting the local community (like these women)

Finally!!

Now I can say: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SAM!!!!!!
I hope that the card didn't arrive to early (sent it the same day I left Sweden)! And I hope that you had a great birthday. Unfortunately, the internet he is really bad and photos as almost impossible to upload as only one takes almost 2 hours.
HAPPY belated BIRTHDAY, SAM!!!!
Love,
Kicki
