Where Are You This Time?

Mary Venner gave up a secure job and travelled to the other side of the world to work in foreign aid. Her work took her to places that are now daily headline news, including Ukraine, Afghanistan and Somalia. Where Are You This Time? provides a first-hand account of what life is like in these countries. With a wry sense of humour it describes the strange working conditions, the challenges of  economic development, and the lively social life of expats living in places that tourists avoid.'…an important read for anyone hoping to work in development consulting or better understand it.'—Gordon Peake, DevPolicyBlog
