In the office

In the office

Of course nobody picked up my phone, when I have tried to reach the office, so I had a short walk, had a breakfast and spammed everybody with SMS. When I have returned back to the office again - was greeted by some guy, stripped off my passport and let in.

The first impression - Algeria is run by women! And french kiss, performed by arab women - it is some kind of fetish.. French bastards, ruined everything.

Second - cannot find power outlet for my laptop. Mierd.

Internet is not working for me too, but somebody is already installing new router for that.

Got internet working, but no VPN access possible to the office. Nice. Going back to hotel to try from there.

2. second you need to call them and they will tell you, that they speak English if you prefer it that way.
3. third you need to persuade them, that it is worth to fix a sofa instead of buying one.
4. fourth you need just to wait.
