Samir's Working Abroad. Living and learning while working abroad. Archive for September, 2010. Education: The Path Out of Poverty? In many development scenarios, there seems to be a linkage between poverty and education. Certainly, if one were to graph the two alongside one another, there would likely be a correspondence, at least to some degree, between an individual’s level of education and his/her income. This certainly seemed to have been the case when I was in India. Enter your email address to subs...

To All Sok-Sok! | Samir's Working Abroad
https://bigzabroad.wordpress.com/2010/08/27/a-sok-sok-sok
Samir's Working Abroad. Living and learning while working abroad. Hey, quit arching your wrist and raising your arm lest the lid of the teapot slides off and spills green tea all over the place? The guest only speaks Russian and Uzbek, after all. One of the guests goes to retrieve a cloth to soak up the liquid. He looks around the dining table, finds none, and proceeds to the stove. He picks up a piece of fabric, contemplates it, gives it an odd look, shrugs and heads over to the spill. I think to myself.

From September 2010 until June 2011, this blog was home to my Kitu Moja project. It’s an archive now. Even though this blog’s no longer active, I’m still around. Professionally, I’m a communications consultant, research analyst, and EdTech geek. In essence, I use words. To help you do what you do, better. Check out my professional website. For more info on what I do for work. Outside of the daily grind, I’m involved in a wide (somewhat random) array of projects, from ICT4D to design to cooking.

More than one thing: June 26, 2011. Wrapping up the Kitu Moja project. It’s been a few months since my last post, where I let you know that I was putting the project on hiatus while I made my way back to Canada. So, I thought it was about time that I gave an update! As things move in different directions both professionally and personally, I’ve decided not to continue with the Kitu Moja project. I had tons of fun with it last year and I’m blown away that I managed to keep it up for 10 months! A Canadian ...

Kitu moja: June 17, 2011. Wrapping up the Kitu Moja project. More than one thing: June 26, 2011. Things are getting busy around here, with my contract at the Aga Khan University coming to an end this week just as three of my friend from Canada arrive for a month of travelling adventures! So, I think I’m going to put the “Kitu Moja” project on hold for a bit – a post a day is going to be a bit much while I’m wandering around that Maasi Mara or lazing about on the Lamu coast. Went to see the horse races!

A New Nightly Ritual? | Samir's Working Abroad
https://bigzabroad.wordpress.com/2011/01/17/a-new-nightly-ritual
Samir's Working Abroad. Living and learning while working abroad. A New Nightly Ritual? A moment to describe my state as I write this: I’m coughing up a fit. There is a gash under my left eye. My big toe is in pain; the toenail is bleeding on the inside. And my body is burning up, though it is around -7 degrees. Today, after eating dinner with my host family, the daughter approached me with a mischievous smile on her face. Sameeer! Oh, and if you’re wondering why there’s a gash under my left eye, the ans...

Pastoralists brace for hard times as weather experts predict drought | Tafuta News

Drought Alert →. January 4, 2011 · 9:27 pm. Pastoralists brace for hard times as weather experts predict drought. In a country where millions of people rely on livestock for their livelihoods, a little dry weather is much more than an inconvenience. While Kenya is expecting mild drought conditions this year, pastoralist communities worry they’ll be unable to cope after consecutive annual droughts have dried up all the resources they have left.

Monthly Archives: September 2010. September 22, 2010 · 10:15 pm. About three weeks ago, I opened up the newspaper and read that a man in Kisumu had brutally murdered his inherited wife and her three children. Days later, a man in Migori did the same thing. The community was distraught. Saddened. Infuriated. The police arrested the Kisumu man. The Migori man wasn’t so lucky. The community chased him down as he fled toward the Tanzanian border. They killed him on the spot. But what did it mean? I had conta...
