Hello together,

since Saturday noon I'm back in Germany.

I arrived safely even with growing pain in my whole body during the flight because of the stress I had the whole week and with saying goodbye to everybody.
It was really hard to say bye to everybody ... but I know that it was not my last visit of Uganda and all my new friends.

EVERYBODY in UGANDA - I REALLY REALLY MISS AND LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

And for everybody who wants to see my pics from my stay in Uganda here are the links:

My last days

I had a great and wonderful time and don't want to miss this experience and all the people I met.

I don't have any more words at the moments but a big lump in my throat.
Take care!

Hello everyone,

sorry that I again didn't write for a long time, but we had a lot of sick children at home.

And yesterday we just came back from a safari. It was amazing.
We saw a lot of wild animals, like giraffes, elephants, water buffallos, a lion, a leopard, hippos, rhinos, monkeys, crocodiles.

Today we go back to El Shadai and on Thursday, my birthday, we go rafting again and we will have a birthday party in the evening at the place where we sleep after rating.

Thousand hugs
Meike

Hello together,

sorry that I didn't write for such a long time.

Two new volunteers arrived mid of June and I were occupied in showing them everything here.

I hope you are all fine.

I am ok again. I'm still on medical treatment because I have an infected throat but I feel a lot better again. On Wednesday I take my last treatments and then I should be totally well again.

A lot of greetings from Bugembe
Meike

Hello,

I just uploaded some of my pics. I hope you enjoy them.

I am fine. The 1,5 weeks alone at El Shadai (without other volunteers) was fine. Today the first kids started to go back to school. I think tomorrow the kids which are at boarding school will go back to school too.

On Saturday I will head to Mbale where I visit another project and I'm already very excited to go there.

Take care
Meike

Hello,

since Sunday I am the only remaining volunteer. The next volunteer will arrive mid of June.
The last 2 days I organized my room as well as the arts and crafts material which was a lot from all the past volunteers.

In the last days we had some rain so the temperature is cooler now (20-23 degrees Celsius).
I am getting used to the food amd yesterday I got a lot of mangos to eat. *yam*

My best wishes to all of you!!

Hello together,

I am settled already in the home.

This weekend I am in Kampala, the capital of Uganda, with Amy, another shortterm volunteer.

Today we want to visit the city but at the moment it is raining.

If you want to see a few pictures please check on my German page under "Bilderalben".

Take care
Meike
