elections and holidays

were indicated as early as last Monday with great national security, the barangay elections. This is the lowest political level to the local level, much like the district and village elections. And although in our area on Negros actually very peaceful approaching, we had a lot of military in the city and there were checks on buses by the military in which the occupants were checked for weapons. There was also a church organized by the peace treaty between the official candidate. On election day has not worked and public consumption of alcohol was prohibited. Ultimately, everything went smoothly, at least in our region. Nationally, however, there were 33 dead, over 700 arrests and a quantity of seized weapons. The elections killed more people than the typhoon in the week before.
is now the nightmare over.
The city is decorated and everything is busy with the preparations of the forthcoming Pintaflores festivals. Previously would of course also Halloween and All Saints as relics of the various colonial powers. And there are also school holidays this week were already soccer tournaments on the spacious soccer fields instead of in front of City Hall. There is also the state of our Foundation, who are served through all these days away must. Since this is the most exciting task does not necessarily mean I burn not just to be there and will see what my mentor this week holds for me.
In my small laboratory I have already received last week finally awaited my instruction and filled to exercise with my teacher under the most sterile conditions, the first 80 jars with the culture medium and a small piece of potato seed. Now if I'm up again next time in the mountains, I would inspect the glasses excited and hoping for as few infected specimens. For as beautiful the conditions for the potato plantlets are so beautiful they are also for fungi, viruses and bacteria ...
In my greenhouse to grow I would soon be under less sterile conditions, but much more under realistic field conditions, different kinds of native plant and then later select the best, largely resistant mother plant and clone using the tissue culture laboratory in often. That was the theory.
was the Chief of our Foundation asked me at a meeting a few days, a further training in a tissue culure laboratory for sugar cane in sight.
I'm curious ...

settled ...

I am now for over a month in the Philippines and will have three full weeks of my life behind me, the höchstwarscheinlich resemble the next 47 weeks with very few exceptions. Even though I am here not so much with cultural differences in comparison to Germany occupied, and instead the similarities of people in a completely different environment, much more fascinating find, I would try my life to describe here, by describing the most obvious differences, as I just come to mind.
must first of all I say that the pocket money and food wwf einens here the average income of the people here significantly exceeds. This does not mean that I have the financial means to pay tourist prices and consume nothing but imported products, but it means at least that I, in addition to many other privileges in this respect the image of the white tourists still correspond. Our lodgings are exceptionally luxurious.
body care is relatively stressful, complicated because the showers with no running water, and I'm usually drenched in sweat after a short time yet again.
Since the food, as long as there are local products, very favorable, especially on weekends I eat lots often distributed to 4-5 meals.
As almost everyone here I have also my prepaid cell phone text message and write every week when I wrote a year in Germany, as this is very favorable compared to telephony.
The movement at the weekend in San Carlos success usually with a tricycle (motorcycle with a covered sidecar) or see large with the Pedicap (bicycle with sidecar). Both are very cheap and I am often torn whether I should run a route (very unusual here) or should I be chauffeured. In the sun I regret most of the former fast, morning or evening, however, it is a very relaxing diversion.
Based on my looks or my skin color I would of course welcome very often or mentioned, or get from passing Trycicles the famous "Hey Joe" to hear what I ignore either or increase in eye contact with an eyebrow and grin answer. If I get a tour of the new people are funny enough almost always a friend of one of our ww predecessor, but what makes the conversation started pleasantly.
After the laundry is excreted as too slow and too complicated, I have divided my clothes on my two residences, wash and dry in the morning from now on by hand and then let the clothes during the day in the sun.
Because, regardless of dengue fever, fairly be sensitive to mosquito bites I spray myself constantly with a variety of sprays and wince at every touch together by an insect.
How schonmal mentioned the traffic here quite different from Germany and when it comes to the breaking point of a vehicle, "is trying to study" the principle acted. Thus whole extended families find space on a motorcycle and buses use the roof for additional seats and additional storage space. The German / European regulations for securing the load I get pretty ridiculous in this context. In terms of my free time I have for the first read time, the opportunity in peace without distraction, listen to audio book, or write articles for my blog to be able (if I do not just eat). Since I became aware of this, I am extremely satisfied, even if laboratory work is still not started properly, the assistance provides a nice farm on the pattern of physical change at this time of leisure. Coming soon to San Carlos is "Fiesta" and already we have of the Foundation from a booth there and I do my colleagues there on the weekend immermal company, will probably soon but divided and laid on the care and must then explain visitors interested in our project approach and the biological products of our Demonstration farm for sale. Last Monday we were introduced at City Hall the most important people in the city. The mayor, who at that time was not in the house, we did yesterday then met yet. As for my activities, I can only by a very impressive visit to the cock-fighting arena and report less dramatic beach and park visits in the area of San Carlos. While I'm writing right here, behind me driving in the settlement of a truck with a marching band on it in circles. This loud conversation we owe the campaign to stand before the barangay elections, the lowest political level here. As far as the latest news from the secret center of power in the world. ;)

Tire Learning Suburban

arrival at the Manila project

On Wednesday, 23.09. I left Manila, together with 17 other Negros WWF and our mentor and I am after about an hour's flight in Bacolod on Negros Island landed. From there, the most by their respective Parterorganisationen were picked up. So also we, who have snuggled up to fourth in the cab of a pickup. The increasingly impressive views towards the mountains, but also the lack of English skills of our driver and the lack Cebuanokenntisse our part, brought with it a certain reticence. This changed abruptly when we were ahead of schedule, arrived at our project site. There we were already expected by some people and also directly to a Begrüßungspräsenation and Introductions assembled and in one of the surprisingly impressive building of our "model farm" in a gorgeous natural setting. While the other two WWF was further brought to the city, we had a very delicious and sumptuous meal the way the employees, but also our predecessors still know shortly. There was also the time for a short tour and the change of ownership of a guitar, before the two had to leave. They left all kinds of useful things in the household but also some open questions, some candid questions, some deliberately left open to us to influence our opinions. Our home here seems outwardly, but inside compared to the usual small bamboo houses here, almost feudal, and is only three years old. Since we were released for the rest of the week to settle us, we drove the next day by bus down to San Carlos zuzulegen to us food supplies. This trip was quite an experience, although the ride itself only takes about half an hour. The bus was quite empty and the driver seemed quite in a hurry, so you could enjoy the spectacular views along the "snake road" not really. Go down, we made our first experience in Trycicle and could just get to know our freshly rented weekend home, live in the other two wwf our organization permanently. The following weekend we used, after a brief Cebuano unit with an employee / mentors the opportunity and went back into the city to spend the night and the following Sunday to spend. The company there, was already in the surprisingly comfortable and fully furnished house very pleasant and helped with the processing of the many new impressions. Sunday we pulled together and then going to visit for the first time a Philippine beach on the small offshore island. After we noticed that most beaches are among resorts, you pay for the relatively high cost, we actually found a public beach, which corresponded but less of the travel brochure images. Nevertheless, we had a very nice day and I took the opportunity to pick my first coconut itself! After so much excitement it was back then too comfortable in our new home remote screen. While we are here first treated very carefully and looked after, so that no revision have been possible, we try as quickly as possible, learn as much Cebuano. A few words can break up the mood, or triggered by surprise and Schlagfertikeit great laughter. But just the fact that here in our workplace, only about half of the 8-10 staff speaks English, the Cebuanolernen makes a very meaningful issue. Although our Haubtaufgaben first start slowly, especially since I have a lot to learn, first, we help at the moment with everything that arises Sun So we have two days mainly planted trees and tried to us the many new Cebuano terms that are applied on all sides to impress us. Although no talk of everyday life can be, and here we have used at least at the biorhythms and I for one would like to start in my small lab with the potato breeding to pursue apart from the language of new goals and success experiences. Another overall goal here is by the Cebuano and the work of the (volunteer) to escape tourist role ...
