Scenes from Kapsowar

September has started with a bang - Kristopher is back to work teaching a two-week intensive course at the School of Theology, and Maternity has entered the busy season due to nation-wide holidays in December :) We're so thankful that Gladys is back to watch Dominic during the days and to keep our household running while we're at work. As requested a couple of months ago, here are some snapshots (some new, some old) of our lives in Kapsowar.

Sunrise from our bedroom window

Sunday morning breakfast - banana bread by the fire 

Weekday routine - Mom and Dominic do school on the couch in our PJs, while Dad makes breakfast (oatmeal)


Kim's walk to work - view of the "station" from our front door.
(It's about a five minute walk, door to door, including a temperature check and hand-washing station thanks to COVID-19.)



Walking past the nursing school (classrooms on the left, dorms on the right)


Walking home for lunch - the tree-lined main road into the station (compound)

A few pictures of our house:
Dominic's room - no closet, so we had these boxes built for organizing his clothes, books, and toys. His bunk bed is behind/left of the camera.

Our bedroom - again the closet space was limited, so we had the cubbies under the window and "open closet" to the sides built. Our room gets great morning sunlight - best appreciated on weekdays if Kim has NOT been called in for a C-section in the middle of the night :)

Here's our kitchen/living area - the refrigerator and washing machine are by far the nicest we've ever had! You can see that we do have a microwave and coffee maker - and our drinking water comes from the water dispenser, which we refill from a UV filtered source.

Finally, a few views of our area - our neighbor Kyle took us for a short driving tour with views of the Kerio Valley last weekend. The pictures don't do it justice!

Green all year round

  1. Either Dominic is waiting for clean underwear, or he's trying out a new Halloween costume. :)
