Hey You,
I wish you all a Happy New Year and hope you are all well-slipped.
Contrary to our original schedule, we (the weltwärts volunteers DEDs) but now all the time in Kribi and there have celebrated Christmas and New Year. In particular Christmas Eve, but I have not felt really Christmassy. All the things like the cold weather that made shorter days, the Christmas lights and the Christmas markets in me already no Vorweihnachtsstimmung pay and Christmas Eve I did then, which over the years has become habitual (almost identical) sequence. On Christmas Eve sit on the beach and sing Christmas songs for me was a bit weird. Really understand that Christmas, I could not.

But back to our Christmas party in Kribi. On 1 Christmas Day, who was also the birthday of Catherine of volunteers from Bafoussam, we have again a buffet of fish, Krevettten, meat and various side dishes eaten on the beach. The rest of the day we spent, like many other days also, on the beach and the sea. I also walk on the beach a short distance to nearby Lobe waterfalls, which are not as big and impressive as the Ekom Falls, but give it a beautiful picture.

Otherwise, we spend most days on the beach and the sea. From time to time we drove into town to Kribi. We have stayed relatively cheap in the Catholic mission, about 7 km outside of Kribi, so we always had to take taxis to the city. There is a large market that was very full on Christmas Eve. Otherwise, there are some minor Kribi "supermarkets" and a very modern and equipped with air conditioning Boulangerie. In Kribi I could eat pizza again for the first time. For about 7 € I then get a very good Italian Pizza Margherita, which I would not have complained in Germany. After three months in which I ate mostly very oily Cameroonian courts, the pizza was a welcome change. Since
Kribi is affected very touristy and you will find many hotels and restaurants where you can get and European dishes. Overall, I've seen in Kribi so many "whites", as I have ever seen in any other place in Cameroon.
After I praise the water of the river already looked after descending the falls, we have a boat tour on Saturday made to the praise of inland river. In two Canoes we were traveling about 2 hours on the River. It is also possible to drive to the various Pigmäendörfern. But we wanted to do without it because it's more of a tourist spectacle, as an awareness of the culture and lifestyle. Instead, we prefer to enjoy the magnificent landscape with the sounds of the jungle.

Today is Monday, it continues to work just as slow, as it stopped before the holidays. The computer classes, and the School on Wheels Project will only start again tomorrow, Tuesday, so today we had only our French and otherwise free time. I hope this is not the next day that way. In three weeks we have seen our volunteers at the intermediate seminar and again and maybe this takes place also in Kribi.
Many Greetings
Jannik
