Welcome in the
working world of Africa
With a warm welcome of the project manager, a hug and less

places in the center of town though.
- Flashlight or headlight: So you can still see something when the power goes
out. We've been cooking once with a headlight, actually pretty convenient.
- Potato peeler: Both the little knife and the peeler (dunschiller en
aardappelschilmesje). Haven't seen the knife here, but it is so useful. You buy
your veggies at a local market and you have to peel them. Nice if you don't
