Hi! Today I don’t really have much to say about what actually happened, but I wanted to take some time just to show some pictures that I haven’t been able to put into other posts! So here we go!
This is Omo, she is a doggy that lives on a farm. When we first came she was very wary of us, and usually stayed away, but now we are basically her best friends. We feed her some of our spare meat and cheese and now she wags her tail and runs up to us whenever we come to the office! There are a few other dogs that live near GEC, and they often hang out near the office, but they haven’t quite got used to us yet.
Here are a couple more pictures. These are of the people harvesting the rice.
Last but not least here are some of the kids we have met in the neighbourhood! They were all very nice, hopefully I can make some new friends.
*Word of the day: Meu (pronounced: Moo), it means friend

That is quite a range of ages in your school. Your dog is beautiful. What language are the classes taught in.

I actually haven’t started school yet! These are just the kids that live right by our house. But I am looking forward to starting school soon! I will probably start in January, since that is when their new semester starts! The classes will also most likely be taught in Lao.

Omo is a very sweet dog! Communicating is a bit of a challenge, with our limited Lao and their limited English. But luckily we were able to exchange a few words!

It will be interesting to see how fast you all connect.

Ohh! You could get lost in Omo’s eyes!
Is she a stray, or does her owner let her wander?
I bet Bow’s jealous that she got meat and cheese!

No, she is not a stray. But I’m not sure she has one specific owner either. She lived at the Green Earth Centre, shes kinda just the farm dog.
