back from The Gambia

an amazing country, the WFP staff on site very friendly and very welcoming.
A week full of interest meeting at the UN/WFP , visits to two schools, one in Banjul and in the inland at Kerewan (a part of my fieldtrip to mark my self, the most emotionally) visit the port of Banjul, the National Bureau of carriers, the agency of clearance and fowarding, and especially (not in the program), local customs authorities with a clear explanation of the import process of WFP commodities.
We have not lost and we had a good idea about the supply chain of the WFP project in Gambia.
 
I want to thank, Vitoria and all are team and the driver staff (especially for us to have wandered in the chaotic traffic of Banjul and surrounding areas safe), for their warm welcome. On the Gambia is a country disconcerting at any point of view, friendly people (despite the misery that prevails) and beautiful scenery, maybe I will go back on vacation?
 
I would like to thank the entire team of this fieldtrip and especially Jen Janice for her help and experience so valuable in this country, without her this trip would not have been the same, I have no doubt.
 
An amazing week for me and if the opportunity is, I will repeat this experience

Thanks for your kind words Ludovick. The entire team made my experience a special one and thanks to you too when I was feeling cold on the ferry you helped me keep warm. This was indeed a special and unforgettable experience.
