quick hits

It’s been a crazy, beautiful, amazing, hectic and busy few weeks. Moved from Liberia in December. I’m now back in Lusaka, working on getting Zedspot Media off the ground along with a few other projects. Learnt quite a lot from the time I started working in Liberia in March of 2004 till the time I left! It was my first time ever in West Africa (only part of Africa I hadn’t been to prior to that) and I got to take in a lot of the culture, the food and of course made a lot of friends! I’ll truly miss the place. But it’s now time to get into the swing of things in the Southern part of the continent.I got some really amazing news when I checked my email only to find out that I had been awarded a TED Global - Africa: the next chapter fellowship!!! Talk about starting the new year on a good note. I’m really looking forward to the conference in Arusha this June and I can’t wait to absorb all the inspiration that’ll be oozing out of the great list of speakers they’ve got lined up.

    I see you’re kickin’ off the business too, I like the site so far! I’m doing the same, at a slow pace though…
