I'm settling in slow but sure and am grateful for two of my favorite aspects of this place....
Hospitality: About every day I have a dinner invite to catch up with folks. It's been great to re-connect with people. One friend in particular, who has been on a long journey, seeking political asylum in several countries, has now come back, and it's been great to catch up with him.
The "Evening-Mill-About": not sure what to call this, but every evening when it cools down people come out into the courtyard and mill about. People chat, the kids run around playing games. I can take my pick. I can stop and chat with the adults. Sometimes I can join in on a game of tag, keep away, basketball, or soccer. Good times.
