The beauty of silence..

The days are passing by, work until late evenings, but also some time for fun. Last weekend I got a free trip to Mombasa with hotel and everything. It was the annual meeting for Fredskorpset participants in Kenya. Many meetings, but also some time spent at the beach. :)
And this weekend we had time for a day in the Safaripark here in Nairobi. A muddy experience..hehe.. The pictures will tell the story!
But after having stayed here for over a month, some frustrations are also starting to steal upon me. The beauty of silence some Kenyans call it.. For me beauty is not the right word. Just a bit annoyed when some people just do whatever they want, and nobody bothers to protest.. But still, I love being here, and I really love my work!

When the car is stuck, someone have to be the ones trying to push it out of the mud.
Here you see the result of that attemption.




Hakuna matata! At least not when the tractor comes for the rescue!

This weekend the Scandinavian sportsday took place at the Swedish school in Nairobi. Of course I did my best to defend my home country. Teams from Norway, Sweden and Denmark were competing in volley, soccer, basket, tennis, swimming and tug of war. I played volley, and even though I'm extremely multi-talented when it comes to sports (..ehm..) I was cheering from the sideline during the other sports.
It was a great day, despite the fact that we combined came second, behind Sweden..
