Where We’re Going
We have a general trajectory, but we remain flexible and evolve our itinerary as new opportunities arise and as world events change our course.
We aim to string together contacts and partner organizations to serve as anchors for our journey. If you know people or organizations in the countries below who would be interesting for us to meet or to work with, please let us know.
The Middle East and Africa – late 2010 to 2011
Infrastructure, logistics and safety issues in the region require us to plan more thoroughly than we did for Asia. Here’s a list of countries currently on the table:
Africa
Uganda – Tanzania – Kenya – Rwanda – Burundi – Eritrea – Ethiopia – Uganda – Morocco – Libya – Egypt – – Zambia – Mozambique – Botswana – Namibia – South Africa – Reunion – Madagascar
We’ll consider West African destinations (e.g., Ghana, Mali, Liberia), time depending.
Middle East
Syria – Lebanon – Jordan – Israel (carrying a legal 2nd passport, of course) – Iran (visa and costs permitting) – Qatar – United Arab Emirates – Oman – Yemen
And after all that?
TBD (To Be Determined). Maybe take a deep breath and write a book.

I highly recommend Oman! It’s without a shadow of a doubt the friendliest country in the Gulf! And beautiful as well!

@Tony: Oman is on the list. It comes highly recommended by other friends as well.

I definitely know people you should look up in Morocco! (not to mention the PC services, of course) and places you should go! When are you planning on being there?

@Alicia: Morocco is on the list, but it’s a bit of a ways off at the moment since we are likely headed first to East Africa. But we’ll definitely be looking for contacts when we put our trip together there.
