Hi Elie,
ReplyDeleteI've been following your blog since June,just after I returned from a trip to Liberia at which time I spent about 10 days in Robertsport. Sorry I didn't have a chance to meet you. Had I known of your NGO I would have sought you out! Good luck with your community development projects.

Thanks for your encouragement, Bill. We look forward to you visiting us next time you're in Robertsport! By next month, we'll have our Community Eco-Tourism project up and running, with trained local guides taking people for hikes into the rainforest.
