It is amazing what things can go missing here. For starters I lost my precious daily facial cream with sunblock and Priscila lost another cream when our schools carpenter came to fix table in our room. In any other case we would have stood there, but as we were told that this is our local guy, we continued our work. Next morning (as we both use it in the morning only) we found these things missing. We tried to ask how to get it back, but to be honest, not much was done and we can say bye for our precious belongings
The next losses are a bit more funny as durng cafe evenings people tend to loose their shirts, but after the last one, also a pair of pants went missing... and after doing laundry, someone took someone elses's pants. So a bit problematic with so many people living together... I better won't mention all the plates and cups that continuously take a hike.
But to the best part so far- how I lost a sock. I did my laundry as usual and was hanging it to dry. I dropped a sock. A wet sock! Of course i wanted to pick it up immediately as it is quite dirty around, red sand everywhere. And it was not there. Probably the strong wind that day just took it and I never saw it again. Amazing. I went around the houses to see if it is somewhere, but it was nowhere. I was laughing so bad.... I can imagine a bird flying by one day wearing the sock on its head or when i go to mount Mulanje, i find it there.... Funny!
