Jetzt sitzen ausnahmsweise mal ich und meine Frau rum und warten auf Pakete. Meine Frau jat #henna bestellt um mal die Haare zu färben und ich warte auf einen gebrauchten, günstig erworbenen #Lattepanda3Delta.
*wartet schneller*

Most people living in Ouadane depend primarily on agriculture and livestock-raising, but gathering also has its place. This woman collects leaves of henna, used to treat headaches and to bathe newborns. The leaf powder (dried, ground and sieved) is used to prepare the henna paste used for traditional tattoos.
