A preschool shall be built!
Hello everybody!
Now I'm writing again, so you'll have some of the most important updates.
First I just want to say that I've uploaded my fifth movie on youtube now, this time from the city Blantyre.

Then about the preschool.
The preschool is named Chipembere, which means rhino, and right now the only have a building of grass. Together with the village people I have started the project of constructing a preschool building with them. I have discussed with the chairman of the preschool committee as well as the chief of the village and both of them are very hardworking people that really want to build this preschool.
The village will mold bricks, do the construction work, collect river sand and be the ones to really work hard, but they need support with the cement, the iron sheets for the roof, the doors and the locks. I have spoken with the people in Sweden that I trust the most and they will help me to collect money for these materials. The total cost (including transporting the materials to the preschool) will be around 160 000 kwacha, which roughly equals 8000 swedish cronas, 800 euro or 1200 dollars. I have made a very good plan together with the preschool, so there will be an opening of the building in the last week of august. This means that I will leave before the building is complete, but I am also working together with a japaneese DI (volunteer) called Miyu that will stay until november, so she will make sure that everything is finished.
I think that's all for now. I'm going to watch "Interview with the Vampire" together with some malawian teacher students soon, so it will be interesting to see what they think about the movie! (Especially since malawians are quite superstitious and many of them seriously believes in witches and so on...)
