http://botswanaproject.blogspot.com/2011/06/and-adventure-begins.html
Wednesday, 15 June 2011. And the adventure begins. It consistently amazes me the amount that you can learn from another person. On our first day of work Lyndsay and I had the opportunity to sit down and chat with one of our colleagues. We talked and talked and in a conversation about the pros and cons of tourism I wanted to share part of what she said that I have been thinking a lot about. 8220;The river is very sacred to my tribe for fishing and the waterlilly.

Project Botswana: What Can We Change?
