Accommodation is in a self contained donga with own hot shower and toilet also large mozzie dome under the stars in the dry season.
I usually do most of the cooking as I have to plan meals around what is in the fridge/pantry. Grocery shopping is 90 km away so one can't just pop down to the supermarket. We eat meat however vegetarians can be well catered for.
