Trouble in Jos

Hi you may have heard that there is some trouble in Jos at the moment, this is quite a distance from where I will be based. I received a phone call today from VSO to re-assure me that Abuja is fine, the one volunteer who is based in Jos is safe and has been asked to leave the city while things calm down. So don't worry about me, worry about the Nigerians!

6 weeks to go

I'm off to Nigeria in six weeks to work with VSO for an organisation called ICEED International Centre for Energy Environment and Development, or ICEED for short - you can check them out at http://www.iceednigeria.org/

Looking forward to it, but busy sorting out my flat, shopping packing etc - leaving the UK on 27th Feb
