Thanks Arlene!

We met Arlene last February in one of her visits to Kuta Lombok. She loved Bersahara and committed to come back soon to help us out. 5 months later she landed here again, 2 camaras and a surf board as all gear.

She has spent 10 intense days following every step of the team and the women: markets, savings and loans groups, door to door selling, fish buying, business management trainings, sewing classes, even sasak women modelling. 
Arlene is a professional photographer from Australia (http://arlenebaxblog.com/) who travels the world during her free time volunteering with different organizations, supporting them with what she most loves, photographing people. With Bersahara not only has she done the same, but she has also helped us design our communication materials and even contributed economically to support us.

Arlene, we are very grateful to you, the whole team and the women have enjoyed having you with us! We wish you all the best and hope to see you again soon!

Here is a little taste of Arlene's work...
