22 years after my first
trip I will meet up with people I met on that visit. Diven and
Raymond have become friends over the years. I will probably bump into
Captain who was in charge of the concrete blocks I helped to make
for building the ICU at Monze Mission Hospital. I usually see Mike
who worked at the guest house Nampeyo – now Moonlite.- where we
lodged in 2003 and sometimes I see
Christopher.
Mrs. Sianga took me to meet her patients when I first went to Monze. That visit made me realise there was a lot more to Zambia than you could see from the main road .I have tried to learn more ever since. I am now heavily involved in her wonderful project giving hope to some of the most disadvantaged children in Monze.
Of course these people will be joined by the many friends that I have made in the years in between.
I am almost packed! This year I will take the bird book that arrived a couple of days after I left last year. I will swap my garden with robins and blue tits for the one at Truckers with the beautiful violet breasted rollers and blue eared starlings.
You can follow my trip here and meet some of my friends.
Best wishes,
Chris
