Me on the summit of Pico Basile
The last month has been really busy back here in Malabo. Classes and field trips around the country have taken up the majority of my time. Time has gone incredibly fast for me, as well as my housemates. None of us are ready to leave. We leave Malabo on April 4th. Crazy. Classes are going really well. I am learning a lot. It's hard to sum up all I have learned. However, most of the things I have learned weren't learned in the classroom. I have gained such an insight into the culture and lifestyle here I feel like this place [View Full Entry]

Our dear friend George is currently working in Equatorial Guinea. He left Texas for his latest job project in October and has been sending updates of himself and his activities to friends, of which I am one. With his permission, I let you sneak a peak at the area he is in and his renditions of the passing months. Living in a designated area for the project's working staff, George has a nice, comfortable looking apartment. Pictures of the rooms that he sent are not being included in this blog. Although neat and spiffy, a blog just isn't the place to [View Full Entry]

I am back in civilization once again, back at the house in Malabo. We spent a few weeks in a small town called Moka. It was not quite as rugged as the last expedition but it was definitely a welcome change of scenery. The climate there in the highlands is much more what I am used to. Its about 60-70 degrees during the day and it was not nearly as humid. At night I actually had to use a sleeping bag because it gets a bit chilly. At the beach and the Caldera I didn't even take my sleeping bag out [View Full Entry]

It's been about 3 weeks since my last update and a lot has happened out here. The few days before we left for the expedition was all packing and preparing equipment for the trip. This includes food for 40+ people for 18 days, and thousands of pounds of gear needed for primate research. It was a lot of work but it was worth it. The small group of students that I live with here in Malabo, and I were mostly along for the ride. I mean that we were obligated, not asked to do much more work than all the others [View Full Entry]

In Malabo

 Africa » Equatorial Guinea
It's New Years Day in Malabo. I am loving every minute of this Island. I arrived on Sunday night and was greeted at the aeropuerto by the house director, and we drove to the house in the middle of the city. When I say city, it's more like a large village with cars and slums. The people of Malabo are amazing. The language spoken here is spanish. I have already made some equatoguinean friends who are helping me learn more spanish, in exchange I am helping them learn more english. The Island is very hot and humid. But I love it [View Full Entry]
