Hi everyone! I realise if you're reading this you will most likely be my family and friends (and therefore obliged to) but just in case......I am a volunteer for VSO and this is a blog about my experiences of life in Nigeria, first I was briefly in Calabar and now I'm in Abuja the capital city. You may also find some random references to uses I find for the tools on my Swiss army knife as well as my reflections on my everyday life as a VSO volunteer, just go with it.

The Next Adventure

So in theory I should be in Abuja right now and for various reasons I’m not, I’m actually in Thailand. In a short while I’ll be in Vietnam and then in various other locations in SE Asia. I had a lovely few weeks at home where for all of five minutes I enjoyed being cold then I dreamed of being warm again. I missed the heat, like REALLY REALLY missed the heat.  In my time back at home shivering and dreaming of being warm again a number of my friends and family said very nice things to me about this blog (I didn’t pay them I promise) and asked if I would carry on with it whilst I was having my jaunt around SE Asia and then later in the year when I head off to New Zealand. So the result is that I decided to start a new blog dedicated to recording the ramblings of my travels rather than continue my VSO blog and muddle the two. If you wish to follow said ramblings you can do so here link also at the side somewhere over there ----->
Finally I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who has followed this blog and for all of the lovely comments both posted on the blog and received in person. VSO didn’t pan out quite like I imagined but I am so grateful for having had the chance to do it and for having the experience that I did because it taught me so much. That’s enough cheese for now.
