Me and my home!

A picture of me and my little home! My house is a three roomed mud hut with a thatched roof. No electricity or running water. There's a large garden with banana trees, guava trees, peach, avacado and orange. The chim ("toilet"- hole in the ground enclosed by a small mud structure with a thatched roof) is behind the fence to the right and the bafa (the grass structure where I bucket bathe) is in front on the fence off to the right as well.
I've currently got one cat, named Kombuku (jaguar in Chichewa), Shakila, the dog I inherited from the previous volunteer and her 6 babies!
