With a little more than 2 weeks to go in Cape Verde, I am trying to take advantage of the slow pace and fresh air of this incredible place – that most people would be hard-pressed to ever find on a map - before I go. I will miss this country, and the wonderful people I have met here (Maria, Zita - pictured with me below, Alan, Misty, Bea, Hank, Levindo, Debbie, Albino, Joao, etc).
The Ambassador sent me this nice parting note: "You did a GREAT job, Daniel, especially given the frustrations of having to break new ground with an inflexible UniCV bureaucracy. You should be very proud of that! All the best to you for the future!!"
- Marianne M. Myles, Ambassador of the United States to the Republic of Cape Verde
Needless to say, next year will be quite a change. Mexico here I come! But first, a much-anticipated summer in the States (re-connecting with friends & family in Colorado, camping in Aspen, rafting through the Grand Canyon, meetings in DC, etc) awaits!
