The week started with the weather mimicking the UK! It started raining on Sunday afternoon and continued all day Monday, although the temperature did not fall too much, remaining in the late 20s. This news would usually have brought my brother a lot of amusement; however since he was flying out to visit me on Saturday, the change in weather suddenly became solely my fault.
I was very busy catching up with everything that I'd missed while being in Zambia and pre-empting anything that needed to be completed before my two week holiday with my family. This week in particular the laid back African culture got to me a bit, my frustration at having to wait longer than I would usually expect for information has been mounting – I think it is the perfect time for a holiday! While the cultural difference around timings creates a very calm atmosphere, it's definitely counter-productive to working to deadlines. On Friday I'd received a lot of the information I had requested, but was somewhat skeptical about the progress that would be made in my absence.
