      Hi, I love visiting Africa. It reminds me of the importance of the research I do and reminds me how lucky I am to have a job that PAYS me to go to these amazing places. I hadn’t been anywhere out of England and Wales until I was old enough to get a job and pay for it myself and never dreamed I would get to travel with work one day. At the moment I mostly go to South Africa but in my scientific career have been to The Gambia, Zambia, Ethiopia, Kenya, Senegal, Malawi and South Africa.
