Amazing technology, Amazing bureaucracy

Yes! We FINALLY have our own internet connection as of today! Not only one, but two, one for each cellphone! We can surf the internet, send email, and even attempt at skype from our own place. Yes, it's slow, but we are NOT complaining!

Some things which we consider basic necessities to life, such as having a bank account, a phone subscription, gas for cooking, etc. can't be accessed without proper documentation. That means that people with less resources (along with us foreigners) have difficulty accessing these things. (The whole process is a little too complicated to write it all here...) I can't get into details here, but God provided for us in surprising ways!
