Something culinary
Since we are somewhat limited with our possibilities here in Otacpab, we have adapted to our environment with our lunch. So at noon we eat beans every day, delicious dressed with onions and tomato. In addition, there is usually a porridge, called posho. Either only from brown millet or mixed with Kasava (manioc) flour as […]
The challenge of drinking

Village Learning Centre
Last year we dreamed of a Christian home-schooling curriculum that we could adapt to teach children reading, writing, arithmetic and much more. In our Newsletter December 2018 we reported about it.
