Second walk @ the farm Feb 21st

A few weeks ago we packed up the whole family and headed for Monze, just for the day. It is about a 3 hour drive from Lusaka, towards Livingstone (and the Victoria Falls), so it is doable.

The mission was to show Victor, our architect, the plot, which is important so that he can get somewhere with the drawing, and the drawings are essential so that we can start with at least a few bricks.



Loading up the car to go to the farm.


... Because everyone here, including the photographer, goes into the Jeep..



The farm has been invaded by even more cows, and birds.


Walking with Victor. He needs to see the plot,

and especially the tree to get a feel and a better understanding of the Eco lodge.


Though some prefer to read the newspaper.


Victor has already done some work for Laura and Chris, and when we had that first meeting to see if we could work with him for the lodge, we clicked straight away. He started talking about something and we said we wanted gauze windows for a natural breeze, and no air con, he replied; “so you want an eco lodge?” “Oh, yes, exactly, we forgot to mention that?”

Since than we have had regular, weekly, meetings and our ideas has commenced with his,

and the drawings are getting there.
