Hello altogether, By now, I think it is time for my first entry into this blog. Particularly because I can only be online once a week, twice if I’m lucky. After hanging out in Quito for a while, which was pretty chilly (only 8 Degrees at times), we ventured 5 hours into the country (towards Brazil), crossed the Andes, and arrived in our temporary home: The Suchipakari Lodge, an hour away from T...

hi
Hi Claudi, your trip sounds really adventurous. The jungle is not a 'ponyhof' I guess. Keep your head up! From what you have written you are establishing big changes there! Wow. This is great to hear! So proud of you! The project sounds so ineteresting especially the social problem with the men of the village. They should open up an AA centre there or some sort of extra work to keep them busy and away from the local pubs! Here in Brighton not much changed. We had some nice sunny days already and spring is showing itself slowly. University is absoluetely stressful. Malte probably has told you how much wehave todo right now. I cannot wait until this all ends. Peter is still inGuildford. He willmove to another ward (elderly ward) on the 15th March. He is happy there now and has settled in as best as possible. I can understand that you may be feeling a bit sad but keeping the goal of the project in mind will help you! Will try and write you here as often as possible. 2 months will pass in no time. Hello to Jana. Big hug and kiss from Brighton! Naissa

Hi Claudi, I think it all sounds amazing just the kind of adventurous break I could do with at the mo. Its certainly not a hotel, but I think this is exactly the kind of environment where one (especially you) can make a difference and generate change for better. So keep the spirit up.... Little has changed over here, Jorun has moved in, Amex is still shit and I am busy 24/7. I miss you lots xxxx
