Last night dinner was with Ben and Chris, old friends from the days we started MSF Canada. Ben was the first official employee of MSF Canada, worked later in my HR team in MSF Holland (Amsterdam) and went on field project work in the French speaking East Africa regions. He managed MSF Denmark for a while and came back to MSF Canada before doing his MBA and going into the CSR/Sustainability field with several mining companies in Madagascar, Vietnam, Uganda and at the moment in Burkina Faso. Two years ago they settled in Canada in Vancouver. Chris lived most of his life in Vancouver where he worked in a legal firm; Chris was the legal expert on the Board of MSF Canada for many years and has always been an enthusiastic world traveler. It was great to see them again after so many years. Chris and family live in North Vancouver (where Hilary and Shayd now live) and Ben & family will move there soon as well. Before dinner I went for a long walk in the area and passed the hospital where Hilary works in the ER...
The rest of the day I did some writing, reading and hanging out with Poncho.....
