This has to be a short post because we're about to go home from the SIT house, but I just had a great weekend in Durban and am having a great week in our First Aid Level 2 class!
Early Saturday we left for Tekwini Backpackers, and 6 of us moved into our dorm-style room. The place was awesome- nice people, nice rooms, and fun to hang out at. It was pretty rainy and gross so we spent the day hanging out at Tekwini and cooking dinner. That night, we managed to find another bachelor party and went out to a bunch of bars and clubs.
Sunday we spent some time around the city, and just relaxed before the week ahead.
This week I'm taking a First Aid level 2 course at the Red Cross- it's definitely an experience! A lot of what we're learning is very different from what I've been trained in in the States, so it's a little tricky figuring out exactly what they want us to do. Our instructer is also a little morbid and intense, so pretty much every kind of illness or wound in her mind ends in death. At least we spend the last hour of every class practicing bandages- definitely the highlight of the day.
Sorry for the short post, I'll definitely post another one when the week's finished!
