After several days of life in Orica, we've noticed that we really need nothing more than what is in our suitcases. Six shirts and laundry in the river--that's really sufficient.
People here are so very resourceful, and it seems they have more opportunities to enjoy spending time with each other. We love how Oricans sit on the patio, converse, and enjoy simple pleasures. It seems that when one is less preoccupied with his or her possesions they have more time to be aware of their surroundings. They know their community, and seem to acknowledge being a part of something larger than their immediate circumstances. It's appealing.
More thoughts to come...
