Laura and Rhea just graduated from the University of Toronto and came to Tsumkwe to conduct research with Richard Lee. Every day they wandered around to different villages and talked to people about everything from food to health to income. They did about three or four interviews a day, and occasionally I would tag along. Here are a few pictures from the first interview I went to. The family was very poor. The picture on the bottom left is of the little cluster of makeshift tents where they lived. They were made of sticks and blankets and tarps, with no water or electricity, and they slept on thin mats with blankets on the dirt. Here I am in a café typing on my laptop and drinking a beer.
Is she babysitting others' children? Surely these are not all hers.
