This is one of the older girls at Zamglai. She always tries to get away from whatever she's supposed to be doing to come and help us unload the aid. She greets people by grinning, saying nothing, and stroking their arm to see what their clothes feel like. Then giggles, and runs away, but never too far! Zamglai is an "internat" — a sort of orphanage. Here the inmates, all girls, are looked after by the staff who are paid only as often as can be afforded. The older girls look after the younger ones, and the more capable help the less capable. Some of them are orphans, many simply can't be looked after at home. When they reach 24 they will either try to live together, and continue to look after each other, or will often end up in an asylum. www.aidconvoy.net

Landie (currently somewhat missing-in-action) with some of the girls from Zamglai, who really love posing for photos. Digital cameras are such an amazing tool here, because we can be sure they actually get to see themselves in the pics! Zamglai is an "internat" - a sort of orphanage.
