We have arrived

We arrived in Future Village by late afternoon on the 9th of October

Future Village is a two storey structure - 2 classrooms on ground level and 1 kitchen. On level one there are 3 rooms.

The location of Future Village is perfect - right next to rice fields, overlooking open spaces and when the sky is clear we can see the Anapurna ranges and Ganesh Himal :-)

















The first day was all about settling and sorting - we were 12 volunteers in total (our team of 7 + 4 girls from HK + 1 boy from Taiwan). The split for the rooms was 5 girls, 4 girls and 3 boys. Everyone in sleeping bags, some on the floor and some on beds. I opted for the floor and as Yue will tell you she was my floor mate :-)

We spent the afternoon sorting the books that we had brought over from Singapore - splitting them into categories maths, science, reading, activity etc. Half of the books will stay in Future Village and the other half in the village library.
