About this blog

Ka Weru! Welcome ladies and gents!

In 2007 I will be working with SIM Benin & Togo as a PA and mission administrator, based in Parakou.

This blog is so you (my friends and Church) can keep up with my travels in deepest darkest Africa and so I can reassure my mum I haven't caught any deadly tropical diseases.

Enjoy!

Please enjoy the tales and maybe consider joining in the global mission yourself.
