Kabul

Another week has passed. This week I went to one of the other compounds where you still can have a drink. As employee of one of the compounds you can get on the other ones. Sometimes a person living on the compound has to stay with you. We also had a barbeque evening on the new compound. It was a nice evening. Most evenings are boaring. Nothing to do.
The people you work with are a nice bunch. Everybody of course is sitting in the same situation. You have to be there if something happens, but I do not have a full day task. I help people out with their computers and install new software. Still 10 weeks to go and then 3 weeks vacation. I probably will go for some weeks to Cambodja.
You can see that the days are shorter. At night temperature are dropping. By day it is still nice and warm. They told me that during the winter temperatures can drop till minus 20 degrees.
If you look at the computers here, they are getting very dusty. Some have given up already.
