Muraho (use the translator on my blog)

I've seen a lot. I've experienced things no one should experience. I experienced all of this as a young child in Rwanda. In 1994. If you don't know, Google it.
Apart from that my life has been alright. I have come to England and I have started studying at Islington. Compared to my education as a child in Rwanda, Islington is alien. When I first arrived in England, I didn't know the language well and all of the modern technologies were new to me. I remember seeing a busy road in central London, pondering how the mysterious piles of metal moved around and how they communicated by beeping at each other. I didn't have a car, so public transport was my only option.  For someone like me it was like riding in a tardis, just a little less spacious. However I soon got used to it, a feeling many of you are familiar with I'm sure.
 Sorry about the man. He was helping me operate my camera. He was very enthusiastic.
 First picture I took in London.

  1. Oh Simon, What are we going to do? We know deep down that we aren't wanted, how long can we keep lying to ourselves that we are going to be accepted into their lives? He ignored our emails for 4 years... 4 long years Simon don't fool yourself, ourselves
