After four years in Rwanda and DR Congo I was diagnosed with myalgic encephalomyelitis in Oct ‘08. Following two years in Malta, I moved to Melbourne, Australia where I found a doctor who diagnosed fructose intolerance and - eventually - Lyme Disease. My health improved, I returned to work, and next week I'm going back to my former life on the Big Island of Hawaii. Take a look at older posts (2004-2008) for stories & photos from Africa.

Thinking of Hawaii: spotted this t-shirt on one of the children this week. Probably donated to a Goodwill store by someone in Hawaii, and then sent over to East Africa, where the second hand clothes are sold (not given away!) in the markets. The large amount of second hand clothing that floods the market in East Africa has undermined local clothing manufacturers.
