good morning and welcome

so I've finally decided to open my own blog, I try my best to keep it updated. This time I'm still in Finland, but soon I will start a new journey. The summer has been great, I'm glad I came home to spend it with my friends and family. I went away for one month, but that time was really good for me, I took a deep look inside myself and got many answers, learned a lot about myself. Now I feel the cold wind blowing so I think it's time to move away from the winter and find some sun :) but it still takes some time, hopefully i can go on september.

Sometimes pictures tell more than words

Training farmers about heat detection. I was told here that every 9 cows out of 10 are not giving any signs of heat and are on silent heat.. We all know that´s not possible. So we went through the signs again and reminded the farmers that heat detection is one of the most important works in their farms. No calves, no milk. Introducing a very simple and easy to use "heat calender" for the same group of farmers that were getting the training about heat detection. That´s my pilot group working with this calender. I am looking forward for the feedback on it´s usage and later will introduce it to more farmers if it seems to work out well. The only problem is that not all farmers are able to read, especially the elderly farmers so this comes out handy only for those who are able to read. Teaching our community animal health worker to crab a cow for deworming. With these Malawian cows you need to really strong!! No matter how small jerseys they are. Must sa...

Pachoko pachoko.. slowly slowly

Things happen slowly in Malawi, very slowly. We are slowly getting more to the field but not nearly as much that we should be going there. Last week we managed to see some cows. Our field team got a new volunteer from Canada offering veterinarian services. That was great! So at this time we are working on a proper database of all the farmers who are members of MDFA. The information is bit and bits there and there so it´s going to take some time but slowly getting there. Me and Abdullae on the field Just using the word slowly a lot now to make you understand the reality we live in. No point to get frustrated about it, just need to live with it. And anyway we are left with lot of other things to do so might as well enjoy the slowness. I can never talk enough about fuel and diesel, there might be some but you need to be really lucky to get it. There are days when even the black market runs out of fuel. The political situation is very unstable and we basicly living under alert all the time...

east side

My friend Kalle was reading my writings and he was very sad that I forgot to mention his name and that now I'm actually in Joensuu, so for all of you to know he is a good friend ( and for the ladies, single!! i get u a pic later..) so if you ever plan to visit Joensuu ( for some strange reason I don't understand because there is nothing here... except Ilosaarirock and lot of snow!!!) you can always depend on Kalle. Today I'm going to visit a very special place and some very special people. they were a great help when I really needed it some years ago. And for that I thank them because I am able to walk on my own feet again! Saatiin vaparit JokiPojat - Fops Mestis peliin, mutta kiinnostaako se jääkiekko niin paljon?? NO EI! Ihmiset on niin erilaisia taas täällä ja johtuneeko liian pitkään kaupungissa (tai turussa..) olosta et kesti taas hetken tottua että tuntemattomatkin voi hymyillä toisilleen! :)

Mikä Malawi
