Petunia's Pictures

Hi everyone!

My first blog was in 2004, a travel diary of my 8 month “round the world trip” (well, 4 continents anyway) aimed at keeping friends and family up to date as to my whereabouts. I started blogging again in 2007 when I relocated to Paradise (aka Juba, Southern Sudan) to work for a non-profit, non-governmental organization managing HIV and AIDS prevention, care, and support programs.  For the two years I lived in Sudan I wrote about what life there is like, the experience of women in Southern Sudan, and the national and regional events that affected us. I have degrees in Comparative Literature and Control of Infectious Diseases and a total of five years of experience working in the field of Public Health/International Development.

You can find the Petunia in Paradise blog on the sidebar, or click here. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the photos.
