Sam,
I will be working in Niamey at least for the next 8 months (until
February 2001). I will be based in an agricultural research center.
Before leaving by car I am flying to Niger next week and coming
back at the end of the month. After that my friend in Spain will
hopefully have the car ready to cross the sahara from the second
week of June onwards. We plan to go through Marocco,
Mauritania, Mali. We feel the algerien route is a little dodgy, at
least starting from Spain. And also we are not experienced with
desert travelling.
If you arrive to Niamey in July we'll probably be there. My telephone
number there will be Tel +227 72 25 29 / 72 27 25. This email will
also be available. If you need any more information on Niger, I'll
probably be more informed at the end of this month. Nice to meet
you and have an enjoyable trip.
