First week of teaching

SO at last we started working for real.
Beginning by trying a lot of basic circus- techniques, trusting- games and group- exercises.
After the two first days with a lot of late arrivals and a bit of over- excitement and lack of focus; In the third day we managed to communicate the importance of punctuality and focus and it has been working since.
The group has a lot of talent and skills and it seems that the most important thing for us is to build a method and a framework for the continuous work with the group.
What we will eventually try to shape is one big show and a few small ones + the ability to lead workshops for both kids and adults and to combine these abilities with the information and out- reach- work about HIV/Aids.
It seems that we Bjorn, Anna and Johan make a good team with our different abilities and approaches both professionally and privately and though it's certainly a challenge we believe in a successful outcome of the project.
Life here is now slipping in to some kind of daily routine where we get up at 7.30 eat breakfast at 8 wash ourselves and our clothes and prepare for class or going to town or the beach. Teaching starts either at 9 am or 1 pm and afterward we take a walk or a tuktuk to the beach for a swim. Back home we shower hang the laundry play cards or watch freaks and geeks on Johans computer. In the weekends we will probably try to find alternative beaches make excursion to other places and hanging out with the students.
Now we have to take the ferry back to Likoni to teach. Later!
