Trying to Stay Warm

This weekend was our first taste of winter weather in Mokhotlong.

A light snow dusted the mountains in the morning.

Yes, it snows in Africa.

You can actually ski here in the winter.

To warm ourselves up, we set out on a hike to see a few villages further down the valley.

On the left is Rachel, the other TTLF Fellow.

Rachel is Canadian and just finished a community health masters degree in London.

In the middle is Lyle.

Lyle lived in Mokhotlong for ten years and is now back writing a book of short stories about the area.

He's an incredibly interesting guy...he speaks fluent Sesotho...is full of hilarious stories about living aboard...and is a great resource for anything you could possibly need to know about Lesotho.
