Plan B has not been very successful so far..... I've been trying to work with a group who are part of a community called Twelve Tribes. They all live together in a large house sharing a faith in Yahshua (which is a Hebrew name for son of God), in order to forge a new culture and a different way of life. As part of this life they bake bread to sell in local markets which also helps them to integrate into the local community. I have visited a few times and had dinner with the group (which was delicious!), I feel like this is a place I would like to explore further, but I have yet to be invited to go for a little longer.
So with these difficulties in mind I have now gone on to plan C......
I seem to have jumped around a lot these last few weeks and have found it hard to find the right project to focus on, I'm conscious I have not been able to stick with anything as yet. I hadn't planned for my first, and my second idea to go wrong which has made me feel very confused. It's definitely been a learning process trying to gain access to these places and realise it's hard to work with people when you only have a short time to get to know them. I think I have been focussing on the 'right' project too much instead of just getting out there and making some pictures.
