Beautiful Balmy Bujumbura Burundi is becoming a bit of an endurance test as the electricity is off more than it is on for the second week running. Yup, it's a bonafide complaint living without use of our electric 'fridge and no fans to, at least circulate the very warm air. Over the weekend we fled the city to the cool and quiet of Kibuye two and half hours into the mountains. Oh, how awesome if the university were there!!
On the brighter side: classes are in full swing here at Hope Africa University in the 2nd and last semester of their school year. Seems different to have graduation in December, but it works for them! As always, it is delightful to teach students who are eager to learn. Our classes are in motion and we're looking to see where we can add some time for tutoring to encourage and strengthen speaking skills for students struggling with French while others struggle with English. Pretty amazing that they'll graduate with fluency in both languages! Of course, many students come to HAU with fluency in 3 and 4 languages!
This is my first blog and I'm looking to learn how to post photos....more later.
