Hi Stephanie & Ruth, Great to hear from you again with all your news. You seem to be having the trip of a lifetime. Looks like you are in for a really good "tourist bit" now as well but not in the tractor and trailer I hope?! Have a great time. Tony W.
Hallo Stephanie and Ruth I have much enjoyed your blog and your varied adventures.It was also interesting watching Pete's presentation in church this morning. Best wishes for your last week and journey home. Love Monica
Stephanie: Hi! For those of you who don't know much about me I live in Wolverhampton with my husband Pete and two children,Joe and Beth. I work for the National Trust at Moseley Old Hall. I trained as a teacher of children with special educational needs and have taught in various schools. Going on this trip is really exciting for me and I hope I can be of some help to the Kukura Neshungu school!
Ruth: Hi, my name is Ruth. I live in Northampton. I've had two careers in my working life, the first nursing at the Luton and Dunstable Hospital and the second teaching children with special educational needs at Northgate School in Northampton.
Some people at church felt that at my age I should be sitting in a rocking chair, shawl over my knees, knitting, not going to Africa!
I like a challenge and as I am fit and healthy, hopefully with some skills in the right area, I had to accept. I look on this adventure as my 'gap month' as 'gap years' did not exist when I was younger. Of course, I will then go on to the University of the 3rd Age!
I pray that I will be of use to the young people and teachers in the group and that Stephanie and I will survive living together for a month!
