Blocked at the Equator

After days of silence, due to the isolation, I can write from a rough connetion in the earth of the forest - Djolu. We cannot go back until Tuesday, the plane cannot reach this village until there. Hard life in here, eating local food and sleeping on very basic beds, without water and electricity, but the place is very suggestive.
The mission was ok, we visited nurseries and plots, people in here are very kind and they love the carbon sink activity.
I'll give more information as soon as possible!

Four people from four continents

Yesterday we arrived in Kinshasa and today we moved to Kisangani, on the
road to the Kokolopori Bonobo Reserve.
We are thinking on our team as very "international": Dhanya from India,
Michael from USA, Bienvenue from DRCongo and me from Italy.
Tomorrow the last step: the flight to Djoulu and then to Kokolopori by car.
It should be very difficult to have access to the internet in the next days.
Anyway, I'll try to send more informations and news as soon as possible.

Site visit

Hello everybody,

Tomorrow it will start my travel to the DRCongo.
I'll be in Kinshasa tomorrow evening and then in Kokolopori Bonobo Reserve on Wednesday. I'll visit the reforestation project site with our friends of Bonobo Conservation Initiative and the guys of the Designated Operational Entity in order to carry out the internal monitoring and the conclusion of the validation procedure.
I'll post my news and information about the travel as soon as possible.

Bye,

Luca
