Contact details

Well, I'm back in Utrecht after a very busy day in the MSF office in Amsterdam, meeting all the people I had to meet. I also picked up over 5kgs of mail, books, even some car parts. Coupled with the magzines, Gouda, Stroopwafels and Cote d'Or chocolate I'm taking out, I'm pretty much on the limit. I fly tomorrow morning to Paris, then on to Abidjan. Email is going to the be the best way to get hold of me – my normal accounts will be only visible to me every six or so weeks when on a dial-up line. There is also a sat-phone email address, but I won't be giving it out on the blog – contact someone on the mail list. Mail can be sent via Holland:

Artsen Zonder Grenzen, Plantage Middenlaan 14, 1018 DD Amsterdam, NL

But this is hand-carried by people like me, so can take a while to get out. Larger items are likely to be skipped as most people will already be carrying a lot. It is also possible to post stuff directly to C?d'Ivoire:

MSFH, 11 B.P. 2656, Abidjan, C?d'Ivoire.

It might be quicker, but non-recorded delivery post sometimes go astray. It's probably fine for things like CD-Roms with that can easily be duplicated and sent again. (Note that CD- and DVD-Roms are probably an ideal way to get stuff too me: If all the paperwork I'm carrying at tomorrow was on CD-Rom I could probably carry another kilo of chocolate!!!!!)
