Back in Kinshasa. I was really dreading coming here... just tired, and not looking forward to the long hours of travel and the long stretches alone in my hotel room. But of course, now that I'm here I remember all the good things - The energy and chaos of the city. Getting so much more done when working and connecting in person instead of trying to build consensus over the phone. The relationships I've built with different colleagues who are now my friends. The fun challenge of working mostly in French. The pineapple. How soothing it is to gaze at all the lush greenery. Now that I'm here, nursing a gin and tonic under a mango tree, I'll be happy to stay for a while... i hate change/i love change.
