I’m traveling with two co-trainers; Betsy and Linda. We’ve been conducting workshops and visiting schools. Tomorrow we’re taking a bus full of kids with disabilities to have them assessed and fitted for assistive devices.

In one workshop the teachers were discussing how every November the children miss three weeks of class to collect caterpillars.  “What?” Caterpillars are a high protein delicacy which can be sold at market.
