We shared stories about our home towns, our travels and our hopes for the future. I loved listening to all Rhian&#8217;s stories about her travels to places such as California, Africa and New Zealand. What a &#8216;formidable&#8217; way to spend an evening <strong>working abroad<\/strong>. Then, we all happily headed to bed eager to start more work tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>Today saw the group doing a variety of tasks. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Olivia used her french skills to translate the Brossac village&#8217;s website from english to french.\u00a0Kathryn had the very important role of answering emails and scheduling the dates of future volunteers. Later she analysed La Giraudiere&#8217;s accounts. Joanna spent the day up on the ladder painting the shutters. The difference a bit of paint makes!!!
