Silvano is an worker from the caju plantation, e spend his days cutting grass with machete… another day during the lunch break e told me that he needed to talk me in private, which is quite normal every day someone comes to talk about their problem or ask for something… So let’s see which the problem was: “I have a sister and I want you to get married with her”. And then he starts with more details… “I want to be your brother in law”, “She is 12 years old but no worry she knows how to cook”, “She already has bubs and can have babies!”… In this situation you would think that was joke, but here the values are a bit different... After this brief explanation of his sister I told him that was not interested, and explained him the reasons… He was a bit confused! The day after he approached me and said: “Do you know that here you can have more than one wife? (yepp here most of the men have more than one wife at same time) so do you accept to have my sister as wife? And if you want you can have another one older if that is the problem!”…HELP!!!!!!!
:D
ReplyDeleteThis is such a funny story!
Well, I just returned from Katrien's bachelor party, and it was sooooooo much fun. Are you really really sure you don't want to marry?
:P
Enjoy yourself there and a big kiss!
haha
ReplyDeleteYou should have accepted... it is always better to have more than one of one thing... and that's for many different reasons
Super!!! And they say only the belgians like the 12-year olds ...
ReplyDeleteThis weekend I had my bachelor party as well and it was amazing. So when you decide on marrying there, just let us know and we wil come over for the party !!
Just read all of your stories and sounds very nice. I think this kind of experience is unique and its also nice to hear you're doing fine.
If you can, post us a picture of you with your house, your motrcycle, your dog ... anything. We're wondering how you look after a month of mozambique life.
Luis, do well and have fun.
Luís! Mas que história! Mas olha, para não ofenderes ninguém diz apenas que tens namorada aqui e que aqui só podes ter uma mulher (uma de cada vez, claro está!). Estou a adorar seguir o teu blog.
ReplyDeletePõe umas fotos de ti e dos teus amigos por aí!E não esqueças a tua casa e a motoreta! Ehehehe!
Ah! Notícias daqui: Já me mudei para o teu prédio, mas a casa ainda não está pronta por isso tenho tudo arrumado na arrecadação!! Mas daqui a um mezito já espero estar instalada!
Beijinhos e saudades de Delft!
