Visiting a friend


Visiting a friend!
Last week, I visited a friend in a small fishing village by Lake Victoria. It was amazing how her site is completely different from mine, with both its ups and downs. While there, I learned about bio- sand filters and how the women in her group are creating income through cattle, bees, and making water tanks.
Here is my friend and I at the base of some Jurassic Park- like trees. She is in a very wet, almost rainforest like atmosphere, whereas my site is more dry, like that of the great plains.

This cow is kept without much room but provides income to the lady who owns it; enough income for her to hire this man as a cow- keeper (cowboy?)
