Day 3 in Ken

Discover my first bite, two-nil mr mosquito.

The electricity in the camp is only from 7pm-10pm so I have to get ready in the dark. Can’t work out how to get hot water so cold shower it is.

7am breakfast for one: 4 slices of toast, 1 giant omelette, 5 pancakes 😰

8am escorted to the school where I watch their, what I assume was, assembly. I am then assigned to class 3 and first off is teaching Maths.

There is only one other volunteer at the school, a guy from New Jersey. He saved me in the break by drinking my tea for me.

The teacher of class 3 appears to spend most of his time on the phone and not a lot of teaching was happening. Thank the lord for Madame Lauren.

12:40pm lunch for one: about 4 potatoes worth of chips, 2 boiled eggs in tomato sauce and a whole tub of vegetables.

2pm back to school for another lesson before games. Kids can’t get enough of Madame Loz, all fighting to hold my hand to walk over to the field to play football.

School finishes- to the ‘pub’. A lot of harassment before I can finally escape back to camp.

7pm more people arrive at long last 🎉 a group of 30 Indian doctors, I’m in safe hands.

Over and out.
