First Day at Girls Orphanage



On Tuesday afternoon I went to the girls orphanage for the first time. The girls were all lovely and excited to see someone new. They call us all sister as a sign of respect. We teach english to them for about 3/4 of the time and then have playtime till we leave. I will do a more detailed blog post sometime describing what we do there.

Regardless of losing a significant length of my hair before leaving for Sri Lanka as soon as I sat down during playtime a little girl came over and started playing with my hair and putting flowers in it. The ants from the flowers were itchy on my neck but otherwise it was so cute!


spot my sunburnt neck from the boat trip..and the white strip from my camera strap!
