A drink with friends

In the pictures you can see Caris with Caroline, Étienne with Johannes and Pandu (l) with Ruth. We were invited back to their house and Pandu and Ruth gave us some oshikundu. This is a drink made from mahangu (millet) which they pound and soak, and strain and soak. If you add a fermenter at a certain point it becomes alcoholic but we had the non-alcoholic version. They have a cousin marrying soon and want us to come to the wedding so that will be an amazing experience! They showed us photos of their aunt’s funeral. So many people wanted to pay tribute to her that the service went from 6pm to 2am!
