A Few Words about Madagascar

May 15, 2010 by Bernard PollackLeave a Comment

Sometimes it's good to be cautious--and other times it's better to go with your gut. People told us not to visit Madagascar, that political conflict made the country unsafe for tourists. But we decided to go anyway because if we had listened to those voices, we'd never have gone to Nairobi, Kampala, or Kigali. We are cautious when we travel, but aware that our best and most eye-opening experiences are places well off the beaten … [Read more...]

It seemed like such a common-sense way to make a difference in a world where you often think you can't. But the whole concept didn't became concrete to me until I went on an En Via microfinancing tour last November, after coming to Oaxaca on a whim to spend three weeks around Day … [Read more...]

A Few Words About Zambia

April 22, 2010 by Bernard PollackLeave a Comment

Bugs. When I think of Zambia, I think of bugs. It started when a mysterious little creature bit Dani on the side of the head. We spent hours monitoring the swelling as it inched closer and closer to her eye, applying cortisone, and praying that we wouldn't have to go to the clinic. Thankfully, Dani's head didn't explode and the bite went way. Despite a mosquito net, our favorite bug repellent (Dani has a newfound love for chemicals), and … [Read more...]
