Friday 20th

The other interns have gone with the team to visit the refugee camp in Kiziba near Kibuye. I would really have liked to go but I’m leaving in less than a week and I’m feeling pretty tired. It's exhausting saying goodbye to people and preparing to go back to the UK, and I wanted to spend my last few days with the people I love rather than trying to make new friends at the camp.

I went cooking this morning at church. I absolutely love being there with Shumbusho and the gang, chopping, cooking and plating up all the food.

In the afternoon I popped into town to have lunch with Dora at Camelia. Bye Dora! It would be the last time we'd go out together and I’m really going to miss her. Just as we finished lunch it started to rain. Dora suggested that I stay in the restaurant until the rain had stopped but an hour later it was still coming down so I decided to brave it and leave. Error. It was so cold and wet that I had to duck into another restaurant for cover.





And even there I was so cold I thought my fingers were going to drop off. It was now 5 o clock so there were no buses. I had no choice but to get a bike home. By the time I got there I was sopping wet and feeling rather sorry for myself.
