MCN CONGO

I hope this finds you well. I have had to change my ticket once to prolong my stay but now, because of the violence on the plateau, I need to change it again.
We’ve had a great time. Unfortunately, the center on the Plateau was attacked by an armed group just after Neema and I left…Many homes in the village were burned and the violence has spread across the plateau where I was scheduled to return today. So…it’s been interesting. But I got incredible footage and stories from Neema’s projects!!!
thanks again for your huge contribution!
