6 houses later!

Team 1 have gone (arriving in the UK to the snow last weekend).

They had built the living / cooking / relaxation area onto 6 houses of families who had been relocated from the river front (photo 1)- here people had to contend with floods, flith, diseases, termites and a life of indescribable poverty. (This was in the dry season and looked quite reasonable - imagine 3m of filthy sewerage water swilling underneath / through these homes.)

They were "evicted" by their landlord when he wanted to sell this prime land to developers who will build new luxary homes and offices. These people were the lucky ones - they were able to be re-housed in concrete 1-room homes (2nd picture). We built the 2nd room that allows for 'outside' space and security. The first team managed the first 6 houses - with 12 more to go we are on track.
