Here's a journal entry from my book:
"Well - an exhausting day yesterday! Lessons learned....next time....bring less weekend wear!!! NO OPEN SHOULDERS HERE!!! No tank tops - the women prefer to wear t-shirts, blouses and skirts.
Note to self: going out to eat is expensive! Meals here go from $45.00 to $98.00 ECD...WORD OF ADVICE - NEXT TIME....pick up a copy of "THE LONELY PLANET".
Lesson learned....along with having your passport and eticket to the full destination...have the ACTUAL ADDRESS FULL AND COMPLETE along with the first and last name of the people you will be living with...the phone number and make sure to know if the streets have actual names and whether there is a postal code....
So what of my work? Well for now...I was told to sleep in.....time here happens as it should....it's a very relaxed sense"
