I have just arrived in Moshi, a small Town in northern Tanzania where our college is located, on the slopes of kilimanjaro. I have returned for a four months final semester after which I will return to Kenya for 10 months of fieldwork on bushmeat. Everything here is excellent but not the internet services! Connections are slow, prohibitively expensive for mobile phones and unreliable. This means reguler posting will not be possible. Internet at the college is even worse and I have to travel to Moshi, 14km away to publish a post! On Monday I will attend the Sullivan summit in Arusha. I hope to do a post on the proceeding especailly discussions on environmental issues. Iregi Mwenja
