We’ll also potentially be able to offer you a webpage for your study, should it be useful to have a link that showcases your key findings and related publications.

With further tales of being briefly mugged, being anxious, being lied to, being in the middle of nowhere for no apparent reason, being under the protection of drugs gangs, and so on. There’s plenty of job-related serious and silly content for us to share with you.

Have we ever accidentally eaten a large spoonful of hot West African green pepper sauce thinking it was avocado? (Jess has!) And have we ever foolishly spilt litres of orange juice onto the carpet of a posh hotel in Switzerland? (Mike has!)

What do we actually do when we go there? Do we like the food? How many litres of sweat do we lose per week in Ghana? Who even are we? (Answers on a postcard for that one!)

There’ll also be musings of our experiences in countries such as Ghana, or cities such as Geneva, and maybe even other places that don’t begin with G.

My yak-based moon-landing project, in conjunction with a humanities expert and written on pen and paper, is doomed to fail yet again, it seems.

Universities and us staff members simply have to a) do more to work with the public, highlighting the benefits of universities in the local community, nationally, and internationally.
And b) correct the narrative and misinformation spread in both political and media circles.
