This album will give a little flavour of the area and people around my apartment. It was the rainy season.
It also captures some of the activities of a one week planning retreat that we hosted as we began the process of writing the National Economic Development Plan called The Page. It was held in an environmental friendly lodge near the village of Kartung which is right on the sea. A beautiful area and a most productive retreat.
