Out of West Africa | Into West Africa
https://intowestafrica.wordpress.com/2012/04/30/out-of-west-africa
An expatriate's life in Port Gentil, Gabon. Out of West Africa. Of course, we always get excited to travel but it means something a little bit more to us these days. It means getting out of West Africa. Here are some photos via Instragram of those little things we enjoyed on our first few days in Spain. Different beer (for me, a Newcastle – for Joe, Sierra Nevada IPA). Salads and fresh vegetables and fruit. Laquo; Au revoir Gabon, Hola Spain. Date : April 30, 2012. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Our Little Kingfisher Friend | Into West Africa
https://intowestafrica.wordpress.com/2012/04/18/our-little-kingfisher-friend
An expatriate's life in Port Gentil, Gabon. Our Little Kingfisher Friend. Every afternoon, usually between 4 and 5, our little kingfisher friend stops by for a dip in the pool. He sits up on the ledge of the eavestrough and every once in awhile, he hurls himself into our pool before returning to the ledge to shake off. By the way, it’s extremely difficult to get a good picture of the little guy with our point and shoot. I think it’s time to upgrade! Laquo; Around Town. Au revoir Gabon, Hola Spain. Enter ...

Moving to Gabon? | Into West Africa
https://intowestafrica.wordpress.com/moving-to-gabon
An expatriate's life in Port Gentil, Gabon. So you or your husband/wife has been offered a position in Gabon and you are wondering if you should go…. With that being said, you need to come with an open mind. I’ve met several women who come and hate that it’s different and can’t, or won’t, cope with the difficulties. Those who tend to look at the negative side of everything often have a tougher time here. You have to be prepared to take the good with the bad. I can’t stress this enough! If your company pr...

Info on Gabon | Into West Africa
https://intowestafrica.wordpress.com/info-on-gabon
An expatriate's life in Port Gentil, Gabon. If you are like me, you may have heard of Gabon, you know it is somewhere in Africa, and you might remember that Survivor once filmed a season there. Now that we are moving there, I’ve expanded my knowledge. Gabon is a small country on the coast in West Africa located directly on the equator. The entire country has a population of about 1.5 million and it is mainly French-speaking. Gabon: The Last Eden. Http:/ news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/country prof...Fill in y...

Around Town | Into West Africa
https://intowestafrica.wordpress.com/2012/04/16/around-town
An expatriate's life in Port Gentil, Gabon. I’ve been making a bit more of an effort as of late to take photos around town – just the regular things that don’t seem special anymore because we see them so often. I thought I’d share some with you today. City Hall – where Joe and I were married. An occupied apartment building downtown. The entrance to a small park on the waterfront downtown. Stalls in the market. People gathering to board the boat out of Port Gentil. The old lighthouse at Cap Lopez. You are...

A Trip to Mandji Clinic | Into West Africa
https://intowestafrica.wordpress.com/2012/04/13/a-trip-to-mandji-clinic
An expatriate's life in Port Gentil, Gabon. A Trip to Mandji Clinic. Commonly referred to as “Manky Clinic” in the expat community. This is literally, my worst nightmare. I am completely and utterly terrified by this clinic and I avoid going there at all costs. I’m not one for doctors or clinics to begin with but you combine that with West Africa and it results in a legitimate phobia. The waiting room and reception desk. Padded doors – I assume for those who try to escape. Laquo; Expatriate vs Tourist.

We’re Back! | Into West Africa
https://intowestafrica.wordpress.com/2012/05/07/were-back
An expatriate's life in Port Gentil, Gabon. It’s always so bittersweet having to end a holiday and return to real life but alas, it must be done. We had a most amazing time exploring the streets of Spain and Paris -and explore we did. I’m positive we walked 20 miles a day as around each corner and down every, tiny side street there was something beautiful to discover. Laquo; Out of West Africa. The Time Has Come. Date : May 7, 2012. Looking forward to it! I can’t wait to hear (read) all about it! Jeanie ...
