Lao Lunch, Friday, October 19th, 2018

Today was our last day at the Cuso office before we take off for the village of Lao Ngam. This morning we were exiting our apartment and were greeted by this adorable sight.

The PURRR-fect heart ❤

So then, with the other volunteers we cycled to the Cuso office. It was a pretty ordinary day there, but instead of going to one of the restaurants around the office there was a giant “welcome” lunch cooked for the new volunteers. It was delicious! There was soup, salad, rice and more! My favourite was a vegetable called “Morning Glory”, it was really good.

After lunch, the kitchen staff surprised us by bringing out a cake! It was for the Volunteers having October birthdays, which my Mom was one of. It was a beautiful cake. It even had three roses made out of chocolate.

We are having a fantastic time here. I’m adjusting the the life quite well, and I think Mom is too. I wish the best to all you back home.

*Word of the day: Dii (pronounced dee), it means “good”.
