last lecture (of this semester)

I finished the lectures for this semester!!! Great relief.. Now we
just have to mark the exam papers and see if the students are doing
well. Not many other things going on, apart for the PS meeting last
week end (wait for the next post:).
Is winter here, and Blantyre is cold in the mornings and evenings. Is
also dry, we have not seen rain in may be two months. The city is
getting dusty and you see people sweeping the walkways with their
short brooms. This is a funny activity, a bit like dusting in the
desert, but the soil looks very pretty with the round marks of the
sweeping.
Last week was my anniversary in Malawi! One year since I arrived, but
it looks much shorter. One year only to go, but I don't want to think
about the end of my placement. I feel really far living here, and I
miss my friends and family. but I know that the moment I come back
I'll miss the african life. I don't have plans to come back home. I
know it feels a bit too much another year here without visiting my
family, but my parents are coming next month, so it should be fine!
