This afternoon some good friends of ours invited our children over for a sleepover to give us some time to pack, and the children some time to hang out together before we move. It's been a crazy last couple of weeks, with our house looking less and less like a house and more and more like a warehouse. Boxes are stacked up against the walls, cupboards are being emptied, and furniture is starting to disappear as friends and neighbours are taking advantage of the opportunity to refurnish their own houses. It can be challenging deciding who gets what when we leave, since there are so many who would be all too happy to receive those things we can't take with us. People here are used to us foreigners moving on after a year or two in the city, and see this time of moving as a great opportunity to get their hands on some things they wouldn't usually buy themselves. Our helpers have been negotiating between themselves for quite some time now, trying to make sure they are getting a fair share. Since we're moving into someone else's house in Palu, we're not planning on bringing a lot of household items. Still, we've got five big boxes packed already. After some time in Palu we'll probably move to an Island called Ambon, where we'll likely be for just a few months. So at this stage it's really difficult to plan for the future, not knowing what sort of living conditions we'll be in the next two or so years. All we know is that we'll not be settled anywhere for quite some time, so we'll have to try to be light on our feet.
