Safety



There was a lot of concern from my friends and family regarding my safety on this trip to Niger. However, I have a new philosophy which is that my safety is directly proportional to how many people love me where I am. I’m two for two so far- met one taxi driver and one hotel receptionist, and they both love me. So I’m feeling pretty safe. I’m not saying they’d take a bullet for me if we were under attack, but I feel pretty sure they aren’t dialing 1800-alqaeda to report an easy target for the taking. Anyway, this is why I sleep soundly.
