Today we woke up to a brand new week after the weekend, where our two days trekking trip, from Sundarijal to Chisopani, had put its marks on all of us with really sore feet and muscles. Therefore much of the day went by listening to people complaining over this ;) After breakfast we did our weekly Tuesday-cleaning to make the platform all shiny again, which nobody really sees as a hard job be course it's just so cosy hanging out with the other guys meanwhile. Afterwards we all had to present the assignments on the Human Right situation of the countries we are going to, which was really exciting and informative. Then we had a House Meeting and to sum up: "everybody thought that everything was going very well and was very happy to be here - from the bottom of their harts" ;) Today's lunch was a hit for all of us, we had pizza which was a really great change from daalbhat. Not that we don't like it... After noon we had a class with Rikke about social change agents and we found out what characterizes a social change agent, for an example is it someone who is thinking independently, speaks up and who is challenging the norms, so we could at the end of the day conclude that we are all social change agents! I personally found that very inspiring and motivating for my further journey , both as a volunteer, but also in life :)
The rest of the day went by washing clothes , shopping, hanging out and seeing a movie. When we went to pick up our clothes again at the laundry service we all discovered, horrified, that much of our clothes had shrinked or was been miscoloured in some way. When we confronted the laundryman he just replied: "Not my problem, we use chemicals?" .....!! So from now on we do our own laundry.
