We've now been here a week and after many hours sat in traffic and trips to various places we are pretty much set up with the house, phones, internet and car.
There's also been time to get to know the team a bit better and we have met some really lovely people and had fun with them already.
I have been learning more about what Rev Life do in the slums, made a visit to 'the land', and have made links on Twitter and email with some great organisations. And I've secured a steady supply of manure from the cows up the road for my bottle gardens - cherry tomatoes, chillies and cucumbers will hopefully pop up quicker than in the UK! Plus Sue has made things more homely with hearts, pictures and tidyness and is gearing up for home schooling next week.
There will be more to come soon about the work in the slums as we get stuck in, but for now we have made a little video that sets the scene for you...
