started in the second week in January, the second term of school for me. After I had had a long time off I came back full of enthusiasm. In school I was told wonderful welcome back and I now felt really part of the school. We know everything and is happening again right in there. That made me very happy and everything it has done me good. But of course, came straight back and a lot to me. Six new orphans have found a sponsor and be notified had. Unfortunately, not all children are found again and so others jumped for them one. Furthermore, it has got to school and kindergarten children for the 15 other new wide variety of classes. I went back to teach where I left off at the end of the first term, I continued. In the first class, many new children, for example, which I first single flute lessons gave them the standing to bring the class. Or in the sixth, it took the German lessons ahead and I was really excited when I saw what my students to keep everything and still could. With the launch of the new school term, I now finally can start my planned projects. I started to plant the plant Artemisia Annua Anamed. Prior to my departure last year, I read about it and I thought a lot how can I protect against malaria in the tropics. So I came to the Artemisia tea. A tea that has the antimalarial drug artemisinin in itself, is also used in pharmacy. Since I am a whole year in a malaria area I live did not take all the time prophylaxis to me. For one thing, the pure chemical and the other there are many side effects. And so I became aware of the natural medicine. After a lot of information and experience reports, I was always curious, for a tea with which to protect themselves against malaria and to cure the disease even I think is brilliant! From first-hand information that I was thrilled and enchanted tea. Anamed, stands for natural medicine in the tropics and is well represented there. They support local groups and encourage the cultivation of medicinal plants in the tropics. I thought, that's a gift, because if the tea is grown there can take care of the locals themselves. In Dar es Salaam, every third person malaria. As I once read make a malaria test, the doctor told me that come on the day around 30 people to have to do a malaria test and which have 80-10 malaria. In Germany, I ordered this tea before my departure and in addition seeds of the plant. And now I've started this plant to plant in our school. Finally I found a teacher who supported me, all of which have much easier. Moreover, I have now set up a football team. On Saturday mornings I train every week now, the boys from grades five to seven. With great enthusiasm they are and it makes all the right fun.
Since early January I live now in a separate apartment. After my year abroad at the beginning it was just a month I would stay with a host family, it has now delayed a bit and after 4 months I was allowed to draw my own apartment with my Mitfreiwilligem Albert. In the northern district of Dar es Salaam Kawe I now have a two-room apartment with a pit toilet in the shower. What a luxury, a shower, water from above. When I was in the first few months have just washed out of buckets is something very special and as I see far too easy - on tap, water comes. Now it's also cook, clean, wash, and all the trimmings. In our district, we, the new Wazungu (plural of Mzungu, White), already well known, because whites have not yet used to. Unfortunately we had already acquainted with a suspected burglar who broke but luckily not, but just checked out the situation there is to get at all. Our windows are like this all the windows without glass, as it is too hot. The windows here are barred window with steel bars in between so that's always something fresh air can enter. Therefore, one may have nothing on the field of windows, because when cut something valuable, like a cell phone is in range, the thieves holes in the lattice and empty at night when you sleep everything they can get. In Tabata with my family Robert was stolen in mid-January in a night, two mobile phones on this path. In the whole district, Tabata in this night 18 phones are gone. A teacher in our school lives on in the same street as me, maybe 5 houses. It was stolen in early February her purse with all her valuables in a box theft. In Tabata A week later one of the thieves caught and the residents have beaten him and finally with a rockfall killed on the head! The Edith and told me she was happy about it! The people here see it as natural that a thief has to die. Once here in Tanzania, a thief is taken, it is usually on the road already beaten death if he is still up to the police station then creates there. It is bad that is stolen in such a way, but a human life is not worth it! While they may be taken rarely, but what stuck in a situation, a thief who takes in, among other things such risks?
