How To Get A Fake Id Ottawa

9 - AFIA

We were staying in the neighborhood Afia Association Lane ", whose aim is to improve the living conditions of the neighborhood eccentric landlocked and Tambacounda. The welcome we had booked was very warm.

Boubacar, director of the association, put at our disposal a number of people for meals, water management, caretaking. He himself was not sparing of services for the conduct of our site. Each day, Sylvia oversaw the purchase of foodstuffs on the market each day, one of us involved in meal preparation.

"Every morning, a youth remains" at home "is his day of participation in the tasks: washing, shopping, meal preparation and development of Menu for the day. We are helped by Awa. It was with her that we market. Tamba is one of great and lively. It is a true spectacle, another way to approach the daily African: trucks unload fruit amid a sea of people, women, bucket in hand or head, shop: 3 or 4 vegetables, some rice, a fish, a few sprigs of mint, a small sachet of spices. Here everything is sold individually or in small quantities it is far from our shopping carts filled our supermarkets and plenty! even the laundry, salt, butter bought in small doses. Must make their way among the stalls of fish, vegetables, fabrics and goods of all kinds, he must step over the manioc, papayas, lemons ... rest on the floor on pieces of fabric. Here also, it must bargain: often in full view of toubab, prices began to climb. There are days when I can not stand this attitude, then I roar, I refuse to pay a high price, Awa sometimes throws me a startled look and sorry. " Sylviane

" When we return, loaded our reserves and our large water bottles, we find the young Senegalese (es) in the neighborhood who are out (s) college and come spend some time with us. There are also young women and their infants. In the courtyard is an opportunity for exchange, discussion while we prepare the meal. Awa wants to learn French recipes and it also shows us how to cook the Senegalese. We use the pestle and cooked over a fire.

Those moments are special moments and discoveries of rich people. They also allow me to get acquainted with the group, share ideas, exchange thoughts on what they are going through and answering their questions. " Sylviane

" What struck me was the level of life. (...) They may have "used", but for us it is there that says than ours we live like kings. From our point of view, most live with the minimum, not "accessories" that are indispensable for us. Of course not retail, but many small shops and a huge market standing. I really liked this kind of life. "Guilhem

" This new association is implementing development activities for district Afia: health, education and environment. We learn at the meeting with the women that neighborhood was truly a neighborhood "hot" unemployment is particularly developed, delinquency, level of health concern, we are ... We walked, we made courtesy calls to members of the community: the neighborhood is one of the cleanest Tamba, we will not find illegal dumping, no aggressiveness, we welcome young or play soccer with boys, the health post is really spacious and clean, not over-equipped, of course, but ... women do not have lied, and we understand that the collective will an entire population to take charge of organizing to provide concrete and relevant. When one is 19 years, we bump to help his family to live, we are in 3rd because we want to succeed, and that is involved in the development of its neighborhood, it still appeals to some, right?
