Exciting News!
We received our post this week and we will be spending the next two years in Yokadouma, which is in the East Province of Cameroon. Although we will be doing some agroforestry, our main project will be working with both the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and USAID on natural resource conservation and park management. Our guidebook describes Yokadouma as being sort of like a Wild West frontier town (except of course in the jungles of Africa.)
Anyway, we are thrilled and will get to check out our post for a week starting tomorrow. Well, almost a week because it will take us two days to get there and another two to get back. Enjoy that Colorado snow for us as were heading to the rainforest!
Best,
-S

Hey Sarah and Matt!!!
Your blog rocks, and it's so fun to hear the stories and picture you both over there. Congratulations on your post! I'm so excited for you (and a little jealous). I hope you can stay away from the mango fly...that doesn't sound fun. I'll look forward to hearing more as you write.

Wow,
Jeanette and I just read your blog entries for the first time and they are really interesting. Sarah, your writing sounds just like you speak, it's great to read.
My Grandma (Kathy) had a procedure this week and we ran into Aunt Maggie as we were visiting her. She told us about your blog. She also told us about Matt, a native pygmy tribe member, and a gorilla?
We miss you guys and look forwards to your next entry. Be safe, take more pictures, and definately DRY YOUR PANTS!
