Well that was that, and now we find ourselves back in the UK and both feeling at a bit of a loose end and looking for work. We are wandering around for a bit (thanks to friends and family who allow us to use their homes).
I say that was that, but really it is just the start of another period of our lives - we are more aware of the issues surrounding development of other countries; what donations to third-world countries really mean; the use of volunteers and how they can truly make a difference. And of course when we say that we have finished our volunteering work in Aksum, that isn't exactly correct because I am still the founder member of Give Me Education and feel a tremendous responsibility to support and encourage my wonderful committee in Ethiopia. They work so hard to promote education to the children of poor families and that is something that I shall always be grateful for. So maybe we shall return there one day.
Do any of you wish to come with us next time?
