Gypsy village


Today we went to a little isolated village with 3 houses and A LOT of children! They were all very nice and very friendly. We were talking to widow that Smile is sponsoring. Her eldest son had (we think) epilepsy and had lots of heart attacks. Their dog had also just had puppies and they were a week old! They were so cute! My favourite one was a white one; I think it was a Labrador. I made friends with a 17 year old girl who was married, and she cared a lot about her family which was very nice. Everyone was very friendly and it was an amazing experience.
