Midterm Report

MOZAMBIQUE | Tue, 1 May 2012 | By pmok | Views [1225]

African time may seem to crawl, but in the blink of an eye, my African journey is halfway over, and most volunteers who started with me have left. Good times really pass by quickly. The second half of April was a routine of alternating dives ... Read more >

I've spent the last three days visiting Maputo, Mozambique's capital city.  My volunteer program will be in Tofo in Inhambane Province, 470 km away from Maputo.  I figure I probably wouldn't travel this far from Tofo during my stay here, so I arrived ... Read more >

My Scholarship entry - A local encounter that changed my life

MOZAMBIQUE | Wed, 22 Feb 2012 | By graykotze | Views [832] | Scholarship Entry

We plunged further up the east coast in a tired and mud-splattered Mitsubishi Pajero, hurtling along a Mozambican road. The surface of the dusty road resembled that of the moon, the vast and numerous potholes being similar in size to craters. Red ... Read more >
