RE: Day 11, Part 2 – Team Beck tilts at windmills in Zaanse Schans

Sounds like your job is really interesting and fulfilling! I do not know very much about developmental work, but I agree with you that the local private sector is of great importance for helping a country develop. Have you been able to develop the projects to suit your ideals better since then?

Camping was great! We went up in the mountains and it was so beautiful, even though it was still very dry and not a lot of green. I will make a post about it soon! We had to go back to Long Beach today because a friend of ours is organizing a small live music party in his garden. So the fun continues :)

Hee hee, @mialinnea, I'll let you know how that whole career/ideals thing pans out in a couple of decades! On a more serious note, I met one of my current business partners over two decades ago in Zambia and we started then trying to develop infrastructure privately. Let's just say that lessons were learned and wounds were licked, and we now have a much better idea of our niche - where we can bring value, and who to.

Glad you enjoyed your camping trip! I look forward to that post. Enjoy the rest of your weekend 😊😊

That sounds like a huge task to take on. Your life sounds so interesting, you must have so many stories to tell. Maybe you will write a series of posts about your career in a couple of decades then? 😊

In a couple of decades, when I've managed to do something useful, perhaps 🙄
