This is my attempt at a blog diary of our two year stay in The Gambia with my partner Paul and children Abigail and Bradley. Paul will be based in Brikama College as a volunteer for VSO, training the teachers of the future in Maths. We hope to be living within the Kombos region so we have easy access to schooling for our two children, once this is acheived I also hope to do some voluntary work within the region. Please note that the views and opinions in the blog are mine and don't necessarily reflect those of VSO, also apologies for any grammer or spelling mistakes.
