With this letter I have been informed that the post in Ethiopia is mine.. What it comes out now is a mix of feelings: joy, pride, fear for what is happening now in the African corn. But considering everything, I'm happy to leave to Africa.. I'm sure it will be a HUGE experience, by any point of view. Professional and human.
I will have to attend the briefing in Bonn in less than a month where they will tell us everything on the internship, and it will be just the first step.

This will be the official blog of this whole adventure, and I would be glad if you guys could interact with me through this adventure/experience/travel. Keep me company, talk soon.
