Who is this one??

I am hosting several volunteers in my house these days. Ali, Clare and Kim, they are all going to work as nurse trainers in different parts of the country, but first they have to do some training themselves in the Queen Elizabeth Hospital here in Blantyre, 5 min from the COM. I won't speak here about their experiences in the hospital, they are also writing about it somewhere..

It is so much fun having them in the house, specially in the evenings without electricity... we pass the time with candles, beer and corn flakes, (we cannot cook) talking about our placements.

We profit of the transport service of the College of Medicine to get to work in the morning and we just laugh imagining what the neighbours may think of me living with 3 women in the house.. The other day, the housemaid of the neighbour asked pointing to Kim: Who is this one?? she's my friend! I said. Not very sure what she understood.. I already said that I'm a catholic (I can't be bother explaining that I'm not a religious person) so I cannot use the excuse of being muslim...
