Wow! Wow! WOW! The Zambian sky is nothing less than... incredible! Billions of stars, the milky way, all in plain, unobstructed view! I feel as if I could slip off the Earth right into the cosmos!
Today was as series of ups and downs -- a woman engaging in 'witchcraft' was beaten by a police officer in front of our house. I spoke at my first Kala section leaders' meeting, where I heard the concerns of the refugee community met with answers from the UNHCR, Zambian government, and partner NGOs. I also learned how to cook traditional Zambian food with our neighbours when we came back from the camp with rather empty bellies and nothing with which to fill them. The generosity of my new neighbours and friends truly blows my mind!
