Hello,
Another update from another meaningful day. On Tuesday, Emily and I went to voulenteer at an orphanage here in Kisumu. We spent almost the whole day with the babies and kids. This is a home where a lot of abandon kids are being taken care of. The youngest we met was 1 month old.
It is kind of hard to believe that some are willing to give their babies away, but for many that is the only option to give them a life or even survive themselves. At this orphange the kids are really good taken care of, and we will say it is very well driven. They do not lack as much as the majority of kenyan people. This was quite nice to see. That there is places which actually provide more then the basic needs. The kids at this place live the life we want for the kids in Norway, more or less. I think it is great that an organization like this actually exist and have the resources they need.
Emily and I visited all departments, and the one that made most impression was the department of special needs. After working at Teksleaasen and Hauanskogen (a home for disabled kids and adults) you kinda have a different understanding of their needs. You know how complicated it can be in Norway, and then see it it here in a third world country is quite different. It was nice in a strange way.
