I am soooo envious of both the Kenyan cooking and gardening you are learning! It is GREAT that you are updating the blog weekly with photos and descriptions. What a wonderful record of your time there you will have, and it's fantastic that we can "see" what you two are up to week by week! Great to have some photos of your students too. I know what you mean about negotiating the T / S relationship. They want to hang out w/ you, they are available and fun, but you are still learning the nuances of how to demonstrate an appropriate level of distance and professionalism, from their cultural perspective, particularly if you will be formally assessing them at some point. It's tricky, but my sense is that you and Sara are both exceptionally adept at figuring out such things! Sounds like you both are having a great time!
