Am now in Gulu

Since the 25 of July I have been staying here in Gulu. The first thing to be done was really to find a residence. First we stayed at the Cosmo Guesthouse. While there we visited the place of assignment which is Kalongo, Pader District. At that place we did not find any possible house to live in. Then we thought of searching in Gulu and Kitgum. Not easy. Finished houses in both are already occupied considering the many NGO and UN personell plus their offices occupying these. There are several which are still under construction.

At the moment we have transferred to the Comboni Mission Guesthouse at Layibi, Gulu. From here we might eventually search for a house in Lira District, about 70 kilometers to Kalongo.
