Losing a Mother…

Esther Garvi is a friend/member of the AfricanLoft Community. She interfaces with two contrasting worlds: Niger and Norway/Sweden, and just lost her mom recently. She’s back with her family in Norway, she reminisces on her second home, Niger, and her mother:

“I wish I could take part of Niger with me everywhere I went. A bit of the sky, the people, the laughter and the slow-slow pace that I have such a hard time dealing with every time I come back from Western civilization, but which I miss so much when I leave. I wish I could take a little bit of all the things I hold so dearly in my life and bring them with me wherever I go, including my time with my mother.”
