More pictures of me at home in Guidan Roumdji
Here's me in my room
This is me doing laundry...by hand, of course. There are no washing machines out here. I have to say, that is one luxury that I miss dearly!!! Washing clothes by hand is no easy task...especially in 90 degree weather!!!
One of the popular things to do out here is have henna tattoos. Basically it's a tattoo that stays on for a few weeks and then washes off. So, Melissa and I decided to have it done. It was pretty fun! The girl who did it did it all free-hand. I'm amazed at their talent!! After the stuff dries, they scrape it off your hand and it leaves the dye...then they put a chemical on it that activates it and turns it dark again. It's a long process (it took 4 hours!!) but we enjoyed it!!
