Except for the summer, I'll be living in Ethiopia and taking some trips occasionally to surrounding countries. The organizations I will be working for are listed on the right side of the page.

Livingstone

This past weekend I took a trip to Livingstone (near the border with Botswana and Zimbabwe). We had a GRS event on Saturday and then I took Sunday and Monday to see some of the surrounding area. All pictures of animals are from Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park. I also went rafting and got to see Victoria Falls!

Zambia: Ndola and Mulungushi

Been in Zambia for a month now – and what a cool month it’s been! I’ve been up to Ndola in the Copper Belt region as well as Mulungushi lake this past weekend. Most of my work with GRS has been in the office but I’ll get out in the field soon enough. Here are some pictures that highlight what I’ve been doing.



Zambia vs Lesotho (4-0) in a World Cup qualifier – actually the first international game I’ve been to!

Break-down in the bush. Cracked radiator was the problem, so we had a Zambian guy tow us a few hours with a nylon strap back near Lusaka. I still can’t believe it worked. A lot of the driving I’ve done so far has looked like this.
