Currently, working on a PhD in Rangeland Ecology and Watershed Management. More specifically into tropical and semi-arid agricutural hydrology ... hydrologic response to deforestation ... ever advancing agricultural frontiers and how they affect forest and water resources. Even more specifically and less cool sounding ... I'm a modeler. I've been working on a project in Kenya since 2003 and will finish around 2008 (hopefully). Love my research, love to travel ... always looking forward to the next adventure.
Returning to Kenya soon. I thought LJ could be a way to keep up with life outside of my smallish world in Kenya. Looking for friends with similar wandering spirits and interests too.
Life philosophy: It's all about the reading material.

Your travel type: Rough chick When the going gets tough, the rough chick gets going! Sleep outside, hike up mountains, eat raw lizards for breakfast, that's her perfect holiday. Ten days of hiking through unspoilt jungle between Colombia and Panama, that kind of thing. | ![]() | ||
