On most Fridays Holly Taylor looks forward to a night out.

But the 26-year-old from Oxford is in Sierra Leone working for Oxfam.

This is the final instalment of her diary for Newsbeat.

Holly's story: Day five

In a slum in Freetown, Holly meets a man who's survived Ebola.

The odds hadn't been in his favour.

During this outbreak seven in 10 people with Ebola have been dying from the disease.

Cabbia had been working in a hospital, and did a blood test on a patient without knowing they were infected.

"He knew he was at risk, but couldn't tell anyone," she says.

"His family would have rushed to help him if they knew, so he didn't tell them until he was in the treatment centre.

"His mother collapsed when she heard the news. His brothers, sisters and cousins were all crying outside the treatment centre.

"When he found out he no longer had Ebola he was just so happy that he could go home and be with his wife and young child - something he'd been thinking was never, ever going to happen."

Because he quarantined himself quickly, he didn't pass Ebola on to anyone else.

"It just shows how easily you can stop the spread with the right knowledge."

Ebola songs

At a hand washing point, Holly sees a long line of small children.

"There's a health worker at the front teaching them how to wash their hands.

"All these kids sang us this song about hand washing, and they were so proud and doing all the actions. It was so cute," she says.

Holly's spent most of her week with the local health workers trained by Oxfam.

Today one of them pulls her aside.

"Alima told me how brave I was to come out here, because it would have been easier for me to stay at home and she really sees that and is really grateful," she says.

"I was so, so touched by her words - to be thanked by someone who is so courageous and doing far more than I ever will."

The pubs are shut

The weekend's almost here, but there's not much for Holly to look forward to.

"Normally I would be meeting friends, going to the pub, going out to dinner," she says.

"Apparently Freetown used to be really, really good for a night out, lots of music, lots of restaurants and bars.

"Now most have shut and people stay at home, unless they really need to be out.

"I would love to come back when there's no more Ebola."
