Your Malian dress looks beautiful in the picture. I love the colors on you.
Can you identify the members of your homestay family? What's "Malian" about the pose they've taken?
Hello Beatrice from the Ricci Family. You look happy! I just met a gentleman at work that traveled to West Africa for the Peace Corps a while back. He spoke about how he won a "swamp" contest while he was there. Have you heard about that yet?

What great photos! Do the sheep have names? Do they keep you up at night?
Are the people there using any alternative energy, such as wind turbines or small solar power?
