Hi all
I was booked to go to the arse end of nowhere today, which involves a massive journey and lots of climing just to get to the tiny village, however it appears there is rain so i am going elsewhere!
I cant tell you how glad i am of this.
especially as I am going to the mangroves instead!
this is wonderfull for two reasons, one I have not worked in mangroves before, despite wanting to and two they are flat. the are fucking flat oh dear god they are flat. I never want to see another mountain again.
on the upside I have gotten a lot better at climbing mountains. I reclimbed the first one I climbed when i got here and it was unrecognisable! last time I left at 3 and got back at 11, this time I left at about 4.30 due to my colleague being late and got back at 9.30 in time to watch the world cup! and i did twice as many points! admittadly the speedy return may have been partially due to the fact that we ran back down the mountain so I could watch the football! It was a massive success on that one in fact as I thought that the football started at 8:30 so i was hoping to catch the end but I got back literally as the players walked onto the pitch! wonderfull.

The people who live in the house I have been living in co$e back this week, so I will no longer have the house to myself. I will have some company however so that will be exceedingly nice.

anyhoo much love
sam

  1. Hi, how was your trip? Henry is down everest but have only heard from him once. I just bought a giant map of the world so I can see where you are, not where I had imagined as it turns out. Which island are you on exactly? Hope all is well and you are enjoying having company in your hut.
