The site had gained an audience, the children came to watch us build and some even wanted to help. They had also brought a tiny little kitten with them which was just adorable. We were making more sand chains but because I was on a slight slope I kept managing to batter my legs with …
Morocco – 18th of June
The first thing I did in the morning was look across to the the mountains opposite us. The clouds were tucked in-between them, just under their peaks, hugging the sides like fluffy white glaciers. It was a beautiful start to my day. We had a free afternoon after our morning's work on the building site …

Morocco – 17th of June
A lot of sand chaining happened today (pretty much we lined up and passed buckets of sand down the chain and then the empty buckets back up the chain). Some people were also continuing with cement mixing and wall building. I have to say that chains really are the most efficient way of moving heavy …
Morocco – 16th of June
I was woken at five in the morning by the prayer call from the village mosque, I thought it was a dream. I was even more sure when I asked Imogen and Lorna if they had heard it and they said they hadn't, especially when I could have sworn I asked Imogen what time it …
Morocco – 15th of June
We started work at around nine in the morning after our breakfast. Unfortunately I had only had a banana and an apple for breakfast because the only other option was not gluten free, so I was still a bit hungry when we got to the site but I decided to try and push through it. …
Morocco – 14th of June
Our plane arrived in Morocco around one in the morning, we were all exhausted. We got to passport control and had to fill out these little forms about who we were, where we had come from, where we were going...you know, the usual. One problem though, we didn't know our address in Morocco! The guys …
Morocco – 12th – 13th of June
We began our journey to Morocco with an 11 hour bus trip to London from Aberdeen. This was not as bad as I had originally thought it was going to be as we had bunk beds on board the bus to sleep on instead of being crammed into tiny seats. I managed to get a …
Tuesday 27th May – Cave Bar
This dream started off at the Beach in Aberdeen where I apparently lived with my family. This has probably come from the conversation I had with my sister last night about moving into my new flat by the harbour soon. So the house was old and there was no carpets in any of the rooms, …
Wake Me Up When It’s All Over
If you had told me this time last year that I would be sitting here listening to Avicii I would have no idea who you were talking about. My iPod is full of metal and alternative music, because that is what my friends listened to, it's what boyfriend at the time listened to so it …
