Réflexions de Premier Mois

Reflections from the first month in Geneva. Hard to believe that I am already done with four weeks of internship. In the past few weeks I have had opportunity to learn a lot as well as explore the city. Geneva has started to feel more like home now, especially since I figured out the most essential things that make a difference between one’s home town … Continue reading Réflexions de Premier Mois

Life Outside Nairobi

The past two weeks have been interesting, as it is the first time that I have ventured out of Nairobi. Being a part of a program monitoring and evaluation team, I have been witnessing some of the ways in which learning is measured (mostly through literacy and numeracy).

According to wikipedia,  people from Hamburg are called a Hamburgers, and for this post, I’ve decided to agree with wikipedia.

I finally know my way around the city (although, I have to admit … Continue reading Becoming a Hamburger?

Phnom Penh is sure to stick with me

Phnom Penh is one of those cities that, like my old-time colleague once wrote about my own city of Kathmandu, sticks to your skin. You come home with it. You carry it under your nails, in your nostrils and in the pores of your skin. If you know what I am talking about, hello friend, yes, this city is like the home you and I know. Continue reading Phnom Penh is sure to stick with me
