Mozambique 2005
In 2005 I was chosen as World Vision’s Youth Ambassador for Western Australia. As part of the ambassadorship, I travelled to Mozambique with the other ambassadors – one each from the Australian states. The six ambassadors, along with two chaperones, spent 11 days in Mozambique visiting various projects and putting a human face to poverty.
While I was away I kept a detailed journal and took many photos. Amongst the eight of us we collected over 2000 photos. For the next few days I’ll post some of the highlights from my travel journal. I hope you enjoy it!
NB: I’ve edited the journal and taken out the parts that aren’t relevant. Where possible, I’ve removed references to the other ambassadors and chaperones, but where it was absolutely necessary to refer to them, I’ve changed their names. I wish to tell my story without impacting on theirs. However, I have left the names of the African people unchanged. This is their story too.
