About living without electricity or running water

Just a quick note on living without these benefits. Everyday we have to fetch water at the well and store it in 20 liter jerry cans. The well is about 500 meters away and we normally go on one of our bikes and tie the jerry cans on the side. The showers are done via a basin and a plastic cup that throws water over our head, but cold water feels great with the local heat. As I mentioned before there are kerosene lamps at night but it gets pitch black about 7:00 PM and then we just talk and eat. I haven't read at all during this week because of the lack of light. I have to make it to a meeting in 10 minutes... I will write later.

Qué cosas tan diferentes... Es que ni los campamentos misión en San Nicolas. Pero supongo que esa sensación de estar en la noche, sin luz, solamente con la luna y las estrellas hacen todo distinto.. especial. Te mando un abrazo desde acá para que sigas con bastante energía por allá
