After two years my Burkina Faso adventure will come to an end. My CECI mandate with ABSM finishes at the end of February and I will be returning to Canada to 'me marier avec l'hiver', to avail myself of the luxuries of North American life that I never properly appreciated before and to rail against our over-consuming society (at least for the first couple of weeks!). Most of all I am really looking forward to seeing Ariel and all my friends in Chelsea and Ottawa very soon although I will miss spending time with Adrian who will continue working for ASB International in Ouagadougou.
