UN Counselor Kerstin Palmer in Africa

UN Counselor Kerstin Palmer in Africa

Years ago, I met Kerstin Palmer in Boulder while we were both doing a bunch of trainings. 

This past year I got a note from her.  She’s in Africa having decided that it was time to do something different.  That got her interested in applying to the UN to be a counselor in Africa.  Within months, she had been accepted, closed her practice in Denver and left for Africa.  

Kerstin writes a blog which shares her experiences.  It’s definitely worth reading.  Here’s what she wrote about a day and a half in her life in Southern Sudan.
