Welcome to my Blog ...
I will update this with my adventures (and mishaps) as often as I can with little electricity, internet or phone signal in the depths of the Guyanese rainforest, they may be a little few and far between. Despite this, my blogging is proving to be pretty enthusiastic!

I’m in a creative mood, so I thought I’d write another quick blog, that’ll probably end up being a big long ramble.
Right now, it’s Monday evening, and it’s raining. We’re happy about this, because...
First Week Back
28/05/2014 17:35
My first week back in Paramakatoi is now over. Only 9 weeks left of fun and excitement, as Miss Odessa puts it! It felt strange coming back. Over Easter, I think it had dawned on us just how little...
Exams, Illness, Spiders and Parties!

SpiderAs usual, life still rocks.

Exams, Bagpipes, Town and Anthropology

Time is, once again, flying by. I now have 5 months and 5 days left in Guyana. Not long at all, and certainly not as long as I would like.
I’ve been busy at school lately. Last week, the Grade 11s...

Once again, I’ve been busy in Paramakatoi lately.
FRIDAY:Miss Odessa had to leave for Town for some reason. Before she left, she called me to the upstairs building and told me I was in charge of the...
Down the Mountain (... and back up again)
10/02/2014 17:12
Today, I decided to make a visit to the neighbouring village of Mountain Foot. As the name would suggest, it’s at the bottom of a mountain, and therefore takes a long time to get to. Mountain...
