Things I've done this week for the first time:
-Made tea for 12 people over a fire
-Carried water, in a jerrycan, from a well, to use for bathing, cooking, etc.
-Been asked to share a meal by an old lady who didn't speak English, gladly accepted and started eating, then realized there were fish heads in the greens I was noshing.
-Been laughed at so hard for my dancing (ok, ok, definitely not the first time!)
What I've seen of Arua is great. The people are very poor, but hospitable. We've been interacting a lot with the community, picking up trash, meeting with health workers and community leaders to try to help improve the community.
Short, I know, but that's it for now.
