I saw this video over at GCTC and it made me hungry. It made me hungry to go. I’m ready to top off my tank and fuel my complete being with – Africa. A magnifique piece by Delphine Diallo.

Volunteer in Kenya
What was supposed to be a build in Madagascar this year is now a project scheduled for Kenya. The political unrest and change in government has placed a hold on GV projects on the island nation of Madagascar. However, Kenya needs a few helping hands too! I’m still very much in need of adventure-minded individuals [...]
From Uganda: Bitone Troupe

I’ve included their documentary from Vimeo along with the description below direct from their channel. Bitone Children’s Home/Troupe from Grant Buhr on Vimeo. This documentary gives an introduction [...]
M is for Madagascar
Looks like Madagascar for me this year. Care to join me? Let’s go! Have you been? Tell me when and if you fancied the place. Everything I have been hearing tells me this one is going to be magical all the way. Minus the extra long journey to get there, but for the lemurs and [...]

Addis Ababa: Markets, Meskel, Micco, Monuments & Museums
It is called the “New Flower” – Addis Ababa. Perhaps I was too tired to notice how the city would have been named such upon my arrival at the Bole International airport after two long days of travel. And perhaps I missed all other clues on the proceeding days as I meandered through the capital [...]
Trip Planning: African, Arabian, & English Nights
The trip plan. While I’ve tried tirelessly to create amazing little adventures in between now and the next great adventure, I have cooled it down. That means no Caribana in Toronto (Sorry Herschel) and no other international trips. NONE. Of course random things do come up here and there so don’t be surprised if you [...]
Why Did You Go To (Insert Destination Here) This Year?
Sunset in St Pete., FL. Photo: Adrienne C. Wilson Since I’ve been back home and catching up with friends either on the phone or over dinner everyone has been probing and picking at my brain. What have you been up to? Where have you been? Why did you go there? For work? For play? 2007 [...]
