A dress?!

Never ever! No way! Are you ^%*$!*#%*!? ... Wait! I'm a sensible person, after all, and in charge of my NGO's image and security here so I have to give up and opt for a dress. First dress for almost 30 years. Seriously.

This required: (1) me being driven to a local market where (2) literally all people stared at a woman in trousers which was probably more shocking for them than my skin colour. At the very first stall I was faced with this selection of fabric you can see above. So (3) a quick selection was made and (4) I headed towards a tailor located at the next stand. Total cost $4.5.
