Meeting Teresa and Acuil
Today we met with Teresa and Acuil over dinner. We have met Teresa before she plays an important role in the running of the Sud Academy. She gave us some more information and materials to help us when we will be in Nairobi. Acuil is from Southern Sudan he fled their when he was 11. He was one of the 7,000 people in his group of people that went though bad conditions to escape the civil war in Sudan. They walked in large groups for months living in many different refugee camps. Acuil gave us a greater sense of the Sudanese and Kenyan culture. He has also been to the Sud Academy multiple times and shared his experiences down their with us.
