Hey, that's the name of the little town of 1,500 people where I live. You can find it just 30 km west of Beira right on the coast smack dab in the middle of Mozambique. If you want to come visit you can get book a flight and receive a voucher for about 50 hours total of freetime. Think about it! That would be a NICE vacation! I'm just getting settled here and beginning to get to work. Looks like the plan is the following:
Step one: visibility, at ACOFADE (Community Doing Development) we will start a website and blog which explains each of the projects. The site will be ACOFADE@wordpress.com when it is initially published.
Step two: Begin fundraising for books and beginning fun and educational programs at the library.
I was given a great welcome at Samora Machel (the neighborhood) complete with a song, dance (I danced too), and a Capulino (A traditional garment which men will wear on top of shirts kind of like a really big and really nice hankerchief :)
Time to get to work! I'll try to put up some pics and talk about stuff every two weeks!
T-a-ku-sia-ni! (Bye)
