April is all about where we go to buy the things we need in our homes in the villages where we are hosted. Many of these villages are not sufficiently large to support stores to provide food, phone credit, cloth, and other necessities for our homes. Many of us make weekly, or bi-monthly, journeys to our market towns to purchase these types of items. Next month's blog will feature what we buy; this month's blog features where we go to buy these things!

Ms. B: “There are several markets in my town but most often I go to the one under the umbrellas in this pic. She has most of the things I need and always greets me with a smile.” |
