my expat life

huch, 2 posts at the same day. probably cause it is monday and raining, and country director out of country, and tomworrow is another public holiday....

so, a little bit how i spend my time here in Kampala. when i am not in the office working. yap, i start to do more sports , not a lot lot and irregular, but fitness and yoga and pilates helps to maintain the weight, so that i can feel less embarressed going to the swimming pools (there is one nice & Big one, and one small one at a friends appartment complex, incl a jakuzzi). tennis i have to re-start though... then i spend a lot time on my terrace reading TAZ and books. weekend comes, and then the entertainment programm for the young german clique starts. going out also sometimes, but the music is sooo bad, that i always get into such a bad mood after 1 hour. this wont work.
But Alice, my housemate, is taking her role as "entertainer" for us DED colleagues, the german trainess and volunteers very pationate. we are right now a bunch of 5 girls, plus visists from upcountry, plus steady overnight guests in the guest room, and there will be dinner , BBQ (just purchased a grill from the beer bottle deposit collected), brunch, coffee and on sunday evenings TATORT!! at 20.15 sharp! all at our place.
thanks god we have no TV (yet) otherwise we would announce to be the offical host for watching the european football cup....
