Sam's Zambia Experience: June 2009
http://saminzambia.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 22, 2009. Kalimba Reptile Park, Lusaka, Zambia. Before visiting this farm, I was a very big opponent of “luxuries” such as hand bags, wallets and shoes made of animal skin. I am still not comfortable with the idea, but am I being a hypocrite? How is this crocodile farm different from a cow farm or a chicken farm? I certainly enjoy a good beef burger, and I also enjoy chicken tikka masala. Should I become a vegetarian now or should I think it’s OK to buy crocodile hand bags? If, after enjoyin...

Sam's Zambia Experience: The Birth of an Organization
http://saminzambia.blogspot.com/2009/11/birth-of-organization.html
Wednesday, November 18, 2009. The Birth of an Organization. Azadeh’s inspiration to start her own non-profit organization has turned into reality. Based on our research (in addition to just seeing the obvious) we felt that there is a significant, unfulfilled need for educational assistance in Zambia. Education Relief Network. Mission is to promote sustainable socio-economic development by facilitating universal access to quality education. And the great majority of the people cannot afford to pay that.

The school fees are different for each student, because they go to different schools and are in different grades. Below are pictures of some of the 22 students we’d like to sponsor. On average, their annual tuition is $100 and the total amount of money they need, which includes tuition, uniform, shoes, and exam fees are: $150. We greatly appreciate your help and support, and so does each sponsored child!

http://saminzambia.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 29, 2009. This is the first time I am publishing a "video post". Although it is not directly Zambia related, I find it very thought provoking and interesting. I believe that if more people thought about these things, the world would be a better place. Beyond King of the Mountain. Wednesday, December 16, 2009.

Sam's Zambia Experience: August 2009
http://saminzambia.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 31, 2009. A Good Week for "Mr. Sam". As I am writing this, I am feeling very sore. On Saturday, I went for a run and worked out in the morning, and played quite a bit of ping pong in the evening. Playing table tennis was fun, as I haven’t done that in ages. For those of you who haven’t played: You’d be surprised how much you sweat once you get into it. Tuesday, August 18, 2009. Detachment - The Hidden Lesson. For the Orange County readers: Of course I miss the following as well: I miss bei...

Sam's Zambia Experience: It's All a Dream!
http://saminzambia.blogspot.com/2009/11/its-all-dream.html
Thursday, November 12, 2009. It's All a Dream! It’s officially been one week now since Azadeh and I left Zambia! I am sad to report that, at this point, it all seems like a dream – (almost) everything has turned from everyday reality into memories – Significant exceptions are the many friendships we have formed and the lessons we learned. Don’t get me wrong. Although, I am happy to be “back”, I MISS ZAMBIA - a LOT! There are several things I miss, such as:. First and foremost, I miss the people(! We̵...

Sam's Zambia Experience: The End Of Poverty
http://saminzambia.blogspot.com/2010/06/end-of-poverty.html
Saturday, June 19, 2010. The End Of Poverty. It's been a long time, since I published a post. I considered this blog retired, until I saw the documentary I embedded below. It is not directly related to my Zambia experience, and it is not short, but I think it is very interesting and educational. July 29, 2010 at 7:49 PM. Eye opening work that helps to explain the high levels of poverty in Zambia. Thanks for sharing this. June 15, 2011 at 1:16 AM. Hope to hear from you soon! May 25, 2012 at 3:52 PM. Hello...
