Getting started

We had our first regular working day and... it works! Although it's hot and the facilities are not optimal, the work days seem to be much more efficient here. As we are dependent on translators for the interviews, for instance, we have to be flexible and are forced to do the boring paperwork in between. Not too bad, actually.


Doortje and Loucas had a first round of house calls in the poorer areas and got more output than expected.


Luckily, people like to tell a lot as they are not fed up with phone calls of insurance companies yet.


Ana and I had the first interviews this morning, which also went quite well despite the language barrier. Später mehr.




At the same time we started testing different lamps and LEDs we bought in the complete darkness of the Cambodian nights. Yeah. We are planning to get Cambodians involved into that part as well...
