Pear and Avocado

A new volunteer called Jeff from Canda came on Friday. He was given a pear from a friend of mine yesterday. I was supprised that he would like to eat that pear after a full meal yesterday night. What supprised me more is that he ate it without peeling it - 'you don't peel the pear?' I asked. He looked confused to me and asked me, ' isn't it a pear?' 'Oh! So sorry! They call avocado pear here! They don't have pears we have here!' I laughed.

葬禮

今天被邀請參加一個葬禮.雖然未曾見過死者,但跟死者的親戚份屬好友,便被邀請了.

這是一個天主教的葬禮.
首先,我們於教堂,儀式跟周日的差不多.
然後,便會把棺木抬到下葬處
通常死者都會被葬於家前,這跟香港的分別很大呢.
他們於安葬死者時,會唱歌和跳舞呢.
最後,大伙兒會到主人家處進餐.

------

被問到於中國是如何安葬死者,他們好像覺得火葬是不能接受呢!

Oku Lake and Water Fall




Since the Japanese guy was going to Oku and I had nothing to do, I joined him to Oku and visited the lake and the water fall.

世界真細小


上星期六早上,當我剛從辦公室回義工屋時(辦公室正正在義工屋的對面),看見有位貌似中國籍的男子剛乘電單車並停於義工屋前,由於我知道將有由加拿大來的義工於本星期來到Kumbo,便上前查問,但他並非從加拿大來的,而是從日本的,而他只是路過Kumbo並將到Oku.並閒談兩句,發現他竟是我去年到烏干達認識的日本女孩的朋友!那位日本女孩於他到喀麥隆前告訴他我正在喀麥隆,但她忘記了給他我的聯絡方法,怎料竟這樣恰巧地讓我們遇上了!
若果我並不是於這分鐘離開辦公室,若他並不是正正停於我家門前,若我並非因知道將有新義工到來而上前查問,若並沒有談起AIESEC,這個恰巧便沒有發生了!!!
