My Dad has always been an explorer. One of my greatest regrets in life is to have been born only 2 years before the end of his 20 year long African adventure. Since I don’t have any memories of this time, all I can do is imagine. I found this photo of him standing by the Congo river while going through old cardboard boxes a while ago, and it was like stumbling upon a precious ancient treasure.

This is my more traditional blog about social media and genealogy. It’s very different to this one, so I hope you can see how the two different types of blogs (that one and this one) could be used for different purposes.
