I’m Lisa from Sutton Coldfield in the West Midlands, UK. I've set up this blog for my family to keep track of my volunteer work in Africa over the next 6 months.

I’m not really into beach holidays and so any travel destination will have plenty of activity whether it be mountains to climb, hikes in beautiful countryside, or a busy sightseeing itinerary. There's a big wide world out there! Thanks for reading my blog. ... full info

Fantastic work and blog!
What an excellent summary of your volunteer work and a great window into a culture that few others experience! You've not only helped the village, but also given us readers insights that could never be gained from a tourist visit. Good luck with your future projects!

Hi Lisa, only just finished catching up with your blog. Really interesting reading have enjoyed it very much, maybe one day these sort of projects will start to make a difference to their lives even though they seem very reluctant to accept change at present. Hope you are feeling better now, enjoy the rest of the journey, look forward to reading some more, well done, love Pat x

Hi Lisa, I'm a fellow-blogger (www.mytb.org/Elton) and I just bumped into your blog and I really liked what you\'ve experienced in Kenia. Very, very nice! It makes me, again and again, say that we\'re very fortunate and shouldn\'t take things for granted. Good luck with the rest of your trip!
