Doro from the air
We are temporarily housed in a mud-house, called a tukul, at the other end of the compound to where we stayed before. We have a beautiful view from our breakfast table out across the countryside. Inside it is quite dark but relatively cool and we have made it feel like home. We are very glad that we won’t be all living in one room for the longer-term but we are coping OK for now.

Welcoming guests to watch Disney’s “Cars” movie
The kids’ bedroom (behind the sheets)
The “donkey man” filling up our water butt by the bathing hut
We have some electrical power thanks to our solar panels – enough to run the laptop for a couple of hours a day and fans/lights when necessary. Our bathing hut is just a few metres away and the toilet and kitchen are only a minute away. Deborah enjoys spending her afternoons cooking in her kitchen tukul and is even learning to use the charcoal oven (fine tuning still required!).
Much of our living is out of doors which makes the limited space easier to bear. Sometimes we even eat our supper outside and then sit and chat under the stars
