		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s great to have this positive outlook that things in Africa can and will change soon. And if possible, change in our lifetime. But my goodness, the whole situation inspires very little hope doesn&#8217;t it? I&#8217;ve been back for less than six months and the hopelessness is palpable and waiting at the door. It&#8217;s there [...]]]></description>

I also need to tell you about my last interview at USIU and about Salsa night in Nairobi and about Ugali and Sukumawiki but I&#8217;m yet [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Guys, this (bit by bit on the blackberry) method is actually working! So far, I&#8217;ve written about 1500 words. A typical chapter would fall between 3000 and 5000 words. Your comments help more than you realize so don&#8217;t be stingy. Whoever reads this should say something. And to those of you regular comment leavers: muchos [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So back to this U. S. Of Africa business&#8230; Allan was not the only one who thought it was a bad idea. Some argued that smaller countries would be perpetual casualties of this idea. There were also concerns that if power were to be rotated, leaders would play favorites, giving more attention to their region [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Seeing as none of you saw fit to comment on the previous post about a United States of Africa, I&#8217;m putting that on hold to write this instead: Kenya would have been a lot less fun without Nyambura, a precocious eight-year-old who taught me almost every word of Swahili I now flaunt. Her invaluable commentary [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is under 200 words on my first moments in Kenya, the third country on the Solving Africa itinerary. You can expect short anecdotes like this from now on until I&#8217;ve exhausted all my stories from Kenya. Kenya started off with a bang. After the ordeal of getting a Kenyan visa, I thought I&#8217;d have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was supposed to write a great book. Everyone was counting on it. I&#8217;d raised the money to travel to seven African countries and I&#8217;d told everyone I would write a book about it. All I had to do was sit my ass down and write the book. So after traveling, I started writing. I [...]]]></description>
