Two week ends ago, my house was empty for the first time in many weeks.. Guys, that was very weird. But well, it only lasted one day, because soon I was invited to a party, next day I when for dinner, and since then the visits came back to normal again.
Last week end was fantastic, I thought it was going to be a quiet one, but out of the blue I was invited to a party in Mulanje, a town only 1 hour away at the feet of a 3000m mountain… sounds good, doesn’t it?? We danced until dawn, first in the house of these colleagues, and then in the local pub… Coming out of the bar the sun was lighting the mountain in the background... Amazing.
As someone said the next day, dancing here is like having sex fully dressed… Well, most of the girls that you find in the pubs are prostitutes, sex is really explicit and when you visit one of these places you understand how HIV and other STD spread around. This is one of the sad consequences of poverty.
It was nice to have such a hectic week end because work is very boring now marking and marking exams and lab reports. The Malawian English of my students doesn’t make things easier... but well, what can I say? I’m not Shakespeare either!
