New Volunteers

Having been here now for over 4 months, I feel truly experienced :-) and relish the prospect to pass on my new found knowledge to fresh volunteers, who find themselves in the position I was last September.  So with that in my mind, I put my name forward last week to help those travelling out this February.  For whatever reason, maybe a lack of names or simply someone to set up the Internet, I have been chosen and will be in capital for 2 weeks.  While this opportunity is very exciting, different from training and full of potential mischief; it will actually mean leaving Abi Adi for a month.  This includes a 2 week trip to the Simien Mountains which houses the tallest mountain in Ethiopia – Ras Dashen (4533m).  I shall be venturing into the peaks with some other volunteers; and as well as conquering a few peaks, will hopefully see ibex, baboons, monkeys and hyenas.

Please take pics of the animals the kids at school will want to look at them when will you leave?
