Jeanette: Hi, Mr James
John: Good afternoon.
Jeanette: I saw your profile on Facebook and I like your style.
John: I am flattered.
Jeanette: Where are you from?
John: Depends what you mean. I am in Poznan at the moment, but I don't live there.
Jeanette: Where do you live then?
John: I normally live in Warsaw.
Jeanette: Where's Warsaw?
John: In Poland.
Jeanette: Where's Poland?
John: In Europe.
Jeanette: Oh. I hear it's nice in Europe. Lots of rain. I like rain.
John: Well, we didn't have enough rain this year. There was a drought and we only harvested about half the food we normally make.
Jeanette: Yeah. We usually make less food than we normally make. We have droughts almost every year.
John: Where are you from then?
Jeanette: Kokologo
John: Where on earth's that? 
Jeanette: Just south from Ougadougou.
John: Where's Ougadougou?
Jeanette: In Burkina Faso, of course! You haven't heard of Ougadougou? It's the capital!
John: Well, I haven't been to Africa. Hang on, I'll look on Google Maps.
Jeanette: ... you still there?
John: Aha, yes I see it you have a dam in the lake there. Is that for hydroelectric power?
Jeanette: Yeah, my dad used to work there, before his accident.
John: He had an accident? He's OK, I hope?
Jeanette: He fell off of the dam.
John: Well I hope he could swim.
Jeanette: Well, he can swim all right, but unfortunately there was no water in it. Like I say, we get a lot of droughts...
John is from Warsaw, but he's in Poznań at the moment. Jeanette is from Kokologo, south of Ougadougou in Burkina Faso. There was a drought in Europe this year, and in Africa they have droughts almost every year. Jeanette's father used to work in a hydroelectric power but he fell of the dam.
