EIL Intercultural Learning

Hi everyone & Angela. Welcome to this weeks blog. This week Nigeria has really started to feel like home. I am confident about travel outside of my comfort zone and I am having a lot of fun at chiprom now that Eva is back to her healthy self. This week I have not being keeping my diary so much I don’t know why maybe I and having to much fun to write in it. I went to coco dome and had some really food, steak and chips no not a bit of ebba (dough) in sight, I really enjoyed it. I also went to my Nigerian friend Wale‘s house were Eva and another volunteer Alessa cooked us dinner of pasta and salad, so my social life in Nigeria is getting better by the day. 

However as I only have a few weeks left here its starting to hit my that when I get home no body will care that I am white they will not call me Oyinbo or take pictures of me on their mobile phones, its like being famous I will miss it a lot. This week at chiprom the children at chiprom say I am their favorite volunteer of all time. They say I am the most fun. However this week the children have been very challenging and are being very nasty t myself and Eva they will not participate in our game and some won’t even greet us in the morning. Next week my self and almost all the other volunteers are going to the Oshun festival that should be a lot of fun. I will keep you updated sorry my blogs are so short the internet is painfully slow and the electricity supply is not reliable so it takes ages to post a blog.
