Hey all! The next part of my blog isn’t going to come as days now because everyday is similar. So I’m going to write out the different parts of my trip and add in any weekends and/or excursions I go on. Mainly to keep you updated but also to give me something to during the cold, lonely nights I’m having here, although it’s not really that cold and I’m not that lonely, sharing a room with 3 other volunteers!

Okay, so now that we’re up in the mountains with the monsoon about to start, all the locals running around trying to get us to play this or that, in amongst all the wild goats, cattle, dogs and monkeys but the reason for being here is to work in the local schools and teach them English and Maths.

Monday to Friday from 10 am to 4 pm I work in a school called Drovi with 7 other volunteers, we work in pairs in different classes, 2 with class 1, 2 with class 2, 2 with class 3 and 2 in day care. I work with a guy called Paul who is interested in teaching languages and I am trying to be a youth worker. Both of us want to teach in a way but this is something different!
So far I have been there for 5 days and we are teaching them to spell and to count from the very beginning which is something very new to both of us and very testing.
