Residency

so the place we stayed was pretty cool. The compound itself was pretty huge. There was a girls and boys hostel, or residency, a convent, a church, a classroom section, a small kitchen for the workers, a storage area for grain and such, a chicken coop with a rooster, a goat coop with 3 goats, a barn for the buffalos, a smoke house where some of the cooking was done, and the main residency. We stayed in the main residency with Brother Jeremy and Fr. Shakespeare. The place had no electricity and no running water. Water was brought to the house via bucket from the well hand-pump outside. So showering was done with buckets and light after dark was candle lit. they did have one small solar panel for father’s computer and a few lights. But it wasn’t always reliable. There was an upstairs where food was being dried on the roof. Brother and Father often slept out there to avoid the heat inside, and since there was no fans, it was hot.
