Happy New Year – boring message – but now I said it ;)

We got a new Au Pair – Jo from the Philippines. She is so so nice and after a couple of weeks adjustment to the Danish climate – she seems to like it here. Even with our crazy family.. The interesting part is – that whenever we talk over dinner – she impresses me SO MUCH with her knowledge on nearly all topics – and most often she uses he Internet as a reference. And I tok is as a given – that she had a computer at her paretns or a friends house – undtil yesterday when she explained that she went to an InternetCafe and paid 1USD pr. hour. Still not so strange – until I digged into her sallery – 30USD pr. month!!!!!!!!!!!! She was (until 2months ago) willing to work 4-8 hours to get 1hour surfing. Imagine the perspectives this has for the world. Well a lot of My More Intelligent Friends have already been talking about this for a long time – but NOW I SEE IT.
