Stephen and Mary @ Rwanda: Back Again!
http://stephenandmaryrwanda.blogspot.com/2011/10/coming-back-to-rwanda-was-hard-but.html
Where we were based. Rwanda from our eyes. Saturday, October 1, 2011. Was hard but necessary. We decided to have the maximum impact by refocusing our work on delivering as many workshops as we could to as many schools as possible in the short time we had left. Deputy Heads of Rwamagana District hard at work. Well, we managed to do eight of the half day workshops and the one for deputies before we finally had to make the decision to come home after the death of Mary’s father. So, the people of.

Stephen and Mary @ Rwanda: Rwanda from our eyes
http://stephenandmaryrwanda.blogspot.com/p/around-rwanda.html
Where we were based. Rwanda from our eyes. Rwanda from our eyes. Lake Mugesera from a distance. Rwanda from the roadside. One of the questions you might be asked when you apply for VSO is about your vision of what your placement might be like. Actually, unless you have travelled a lot or done a placement before, it's really difficult to visualise the setting that you might find yourself. We had been to Guyana for two years and we knew that Rwanda would be totally different and we were right! Hi, hope you...

Camilla in Guyana: Festival Time
http://camillainguyana.blogspot.com/2008/03/festival-time.html
I am here for one year as a VSO Youth for Development volunteer living in Georgetown, Guyana, South America (and the Caribbean! I arrived here on August 14th 2007 and am working as a disability capacity builder. The past month has featured two major celebrations in Guyana. As dusk descended, talk turned to cricket. That same night Guyana were playing Jamaica in the semi final of the Stanford 20:20 cricket cup. About 15 people squeezed into my little house and as the tension rose, the flags waved,...After...

Camilla in Guyana: February 2008
http://camillainguyana.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
I am here for one year as a VSO Youth for Development volunteer living in Georgetown, Guyana, South America (and the Caribbean! I arrived here on August 14th 2007 and am working as a disability capacity builder. As I think back over the past month or so, it seems (as always I guess) that so much has happened I don't know how to get it all down. It really is difficult to know where to start. And with that I come to the end of today's entry. This weekend Guyana celebrates its republic day with a big st...

I am here for one year as a VSO Youth for Development volunteer living in Georgetown, Guyana, South America (and the Caribbean! I arrived here on August 14th 2007 and am working as a disability capacity builder. Land of Many Waters.
