Limpopo next

Molweni!
or maybe I should start saying Dumelang, which might be hello in the language they speak in Limpopo.. with 11 official languages in SA, and travelling to five different communities it will be a challenge understandig the locals:)

It's now been 2 weeks since I left Mt. Frere. The first week I spent outisde Pretoria in genreal orientation wit the rest of the SCORE on the move group. It was a hectick and exciting week, getting to know the rest of the guys and also learn more about the program. We are three team leaders, and a girl from England and I will be responsible for the 5 norwegian volunteer. There is also another guy, TK from SA, who is also responisble for the project. We are staying three weeks in five different communties around the Limpopo province, which is north in SA. They left for the first community on sunday, but since my mum came down to visit me, I got this week of to travel with her. We came back to Joburg last night after some amazing days in Kruguer National Park. It's the biggest one in SA and we saw lot's of animals, including three lions:)
Tomorrow she flies back to Norway, and I travell to Apel in Limpopo, which is were the rest of the group is now. Really excited about this project and being a team leader. Also I think it's great that it's in Limpopo, which is a province I haven't seen jet. It's suppose to be very hot and lots of musquitos there, which is my biggest concern at the moment!

anyways, will keep you updated on my new adventure. If this internet is kind to me, I'l try and post some pictures!!

take care!!
