What did you spend your second transfer on?
I spent my entire second transfer on plastering the inside part of the main house to avoid mosquitoes and begbugs from invading the house.
Describe the biggest difference in your daily life.
The biggest difference in my daily life is that right now, I live in a clean environment free from mosquitoes and bedbugs since I managed to plaster the inside wall of the main house unlike before where they could hide on the mud wall.
