Journey back to Kovol

We’ve been out in Goroka for several weeks, and it’s also been several weeks since we posted a blog. We decided to film the journey in as a way to get started blogging again and to give an impression of what it’s like arriving back in the bush.

Thanks for the update, I was a little unsure as to where you were! Praying that your time out would have been profitable and that, going forward, you will be able to work in unity and harmony. God bless.

The answer to that as been burning and landfill. We want to try and keep our area as nice possible and so that's what we've been doing. Since moving in in 2020 we have now filled 3 rubbish holes and this weekend it was time to dig a new one.

Guinea pigs

The guinea pig cage is a microcosm of jungle life. It's a tough environment where things wear out quickly. I grew up in the UK where problem solving is usually about finding the right product. It's all about Googling reviews to find the best quality product for the best price that solves the problem. If that product breaks you get a different one or a replacement. We live in an ideas space where we think up solutions. Once we find a solution we move on to the next problem.
