I just wrote a book! Ever since returning from Iringa I knew I needed to write up something to collect my impressions, thoughts and reflections on my experience at Neema Crafts. Well, I did it. First edition has just been sent to the printer. Writing it has made me realize that there is so much more that I want to say than can be said, so there might be a second edition, eventually. But for now, I have something to show!
I have been tweaking and editing this book for a couple months now, and I think it is done!

Bottles to Beads in Review
In retrospect I did not blog well from Tanzania. Neema Crafts is a very successful development initiative and with continued good management it will continue to do the good work well. Volunteering there was challenging, thought provoking, and a source of personal growth. I've never been in a work environment quite similar to it, and the people there are full of life and joy. Don't let the deaf waiters at the cafe fool you - they'll talk your ears (and eyes) off if you'll let them.
I uploaded a few photos depicting the kiln construction and general bead-making process here.
