All the roads in the “centre” of town are paved,
and although crumbling at the sides where the pedestrians walk, there is not
much drama walking around. The road outside my guesthouse which leads me to one
of these wonderfully, albeit crumbling paved roads, is no such vision of
convenience. The road outside my guesthouse is a soil track that every day is
worked upon to try and turn it into a concrete one. Every day I win/attempt to
win small battles with this road. Being soil, it gets everywhere so, there is
not much point in hoping I’ll arrive either at work or at home without also
carrying one, maybe two coats of terracotta dust with me.

Thank God I didn’t buy new shoes!

Following my donations
 |
| Jun Pérez, President of SEED Finance and Amy Lithgoe |
It’s not often you get to know how the money you donate to
charity is actually spent but today I was able to meet Jun Perez, President of
SEED Finance, the Filipino partner of lendwithcare.org. I’ve always thought the whole concept of lendwithcare.org is fantastic and was keen to find out more about how the
scheme actually operates on the ground.
