saturday, 21st august

the countdown is started: 15 days to the opening (on sunday 5th september) and still a lot to do and to organize.

the workshop is doing really well. this afternoon for example 19 persons joined to the workshop. and our personal pride is that the groups were very different: 

-6 teenager volunteers (one of them came a few times already)

-in bom-vaik (a neighbor who is coming very often and helping a lot with the furniture)

-a group of 6 young adults (from korea, usa, germany)

-a family with ajumma (mother), ajuhssi (father) (the first time a father joins the workshop with his family!!) and their 3 kids

-a ajumma friend of this family (their neighbor) and her son.

besides this of course the 3 carpenters, the gardener, the info-team (that are really helpful for example running now a big part of the building workshop) and our team. the nice thing about this evolution is also very different tasks that are developing: we had some planting, painting (waterproofing), bench building, chaise-bordelaise building, mini-chair building, big frame building (with the carpenters), shelf building in the same time! also the gardener did a guerilla planting action with high-school students.

somehow we realized that the communication went through, people  know what is going on at our building site through friends,..
