Funniest moment so far?
We were asking Roma, one half of the Clive-and-Roma team who run PAWS, for tips on the best local places to stay as well as where to stock up on essentials.
Since our rough itinerary around Namibia includes a two-night stay in nearby Otjiwarongo, not exactly the busiest town in southwest Africa, we asked her whether it would be worth staying two nights.
"There's not much to do," Roma told us, "but if you're going camping, it's worth knowing there's an excellent SPAR."
"Fantastic," replied John, "...after all that hard work it'll be great to really relax properly...."

The Story So Far ...
We said farewell to our work friends at the RSPCA and BBC on 14 September, farewell to our families on 3 October, and set off for Africa to save cheetahs, decorate school buildings, and look around a bit. After a trip home for Christmas, we headed for South East Asia on 6 January -- where we were stunned by Qatar and Cambodia, taught novice monks in Laos, and acted as security guards at an Elephant Festival. It was back home for four weeks to look after John's dad, before we tangoed our way through five South American countries in fifteen days. We then snooped our way through New Zealand, dipped our toes into Fiji, drove-thru California and were home from home with family in Vancouver.
Now, we are home itself. Fulfilled, happy, and ready to earn the respect of our friends and family by knuckling down and earning some money once again ...
