On the first day at Sadanah it was straight into pulling out thorn bushes for first work which required digging them out from the roots, a very difficult task. This was not exactly the work I had been expecting and I hoped it was just a one off. Luckily it was. I narrowly missed disturbing a beehive and came away with a number of cuts and bruises. Later on in the week the work became more varied and I worked in the kitchen and did some garden work. Eventually we settled in to the routine and things became easier and easier, however getting up in the morning was always real challenge. The food was not so bad, although after a week it started to become quite repetitive. I think I could do vegetarian, however vegan food becomes very tasteless unless the meals are well thought out. Dal (lentil soup) every day is not really my cup of tea. The people here are what really make the place as there is such an eclectic mix of personalities and nationalities. The accents provide a source of endless entertainment.
