Nairobi, capitale de l'humanitaire

Mon dernier article pour Slate Afrique...

Another move

After six to seven months in London, it's time to see more of the world again...

I have just spent two weeks in lovely Nairobi for a couple of radio and TV reporting and a few articles, about human rights, the humanitarin world and the music scene. I'll post more about these reports soon, especially on my new blog:

http://melissa-on-the-road.blogspot.com/


Next month, I'll be spending time home in Paris and will from there fly to Chennai to spend three weeks in South India, which will be my first trip to Asia.

Back in March in Europe, I just intend to spend as much time as possible in Africa, and especially in beloved Kenya.

See you there I hope!
