Interview with Priscilla

What is your family like?:

I have a husband named Gemini and a daughter named Apryl. She’s turning two in May. I grew up with my Mom in a city called Zomba where she worked as an administrator at the University of Malawi. I have one half-brother named Dennis; he’s a civil engineer for a construction company. He’s doing very well financially, I love it when he gives me money for my birthday!" 

We both laugh. 

How do you get around?:

"When my husband is feeling loving, he drives me to work every day, and sometimes even picks me up! If he’s not available, I either take a taxi or walk to places that are close to my house."

One thing Priscilla and I used to have in common was not having our driver’s licenses. I have since gotten mine, but the roads in Malawi are notoriously intimidating, so I asked her how her driving lessons were going.

"I'm currently taking driving lessons to get my license, and surprisingly, they're going well! Can you believe it? I never thought I could actually drive a car!" 

What types of clothing do you like to wear?:

She laughs and says, "Weather-appropriate clothing." 

"Oh c'mon, Cilla give them more than that."

"Okay, kidding—it depends on where I’m going. If I’m headed to work, I dress business casual and keep it pretty simple. If I’m not at work, you’ll usually find me in jeans and a T-shirt.
