Day 6 - Sunday Rituals

I am really starting to get settled into Mocambique living. My hotel is within walking distance of many local cafes and eateries. Anyone that knows me knows that I love to try new restaurants. And I found a pick-up soccer field. Well actually its a concrete slab. In the city there isn't much space for grass so a lot of Mocambiquens play on polished concrete. It was an early pick-up match at 9am. But little or no sleep, I love my futbol!!!

I am trying to learn Portugese and it is a frustrating process. I am here for 3 months and I think it is enough time to pick up the language. However, I can use all the pointers I can get. Any good websites anyone can suggest would be appreciated.

I am still getting over my jet lag. I almost collapsed midsentence yesterday afternoon after walking around for a few hours and then I couldn't sleep at night. I woke up this morning at 6:30am! That's right 6:30 am on a Sunday. I think that is a sin in some religions...just kidding ;)

Tomorrow is my first day at work. I have to meet the auditors tomorrow.
The foundation I am working with (Mutola foundation) is audited by pricewaterhousecoopers. I think I will know all the right questions to ask them ;)
