Mel surprised me the other day with these stunning photos she took of my back yard as viewed from her house. They were taken early morning with the sun just rising over the bush behind our houses and it being dry season, quite a bit of dust in the air. We're all longing for the rains to start - we're having a hard time watering the gardens with our laundry/bath water as we're on strict water restrictions.
My name is Elna Louw and I live in the middle of the African bush on a copper mine site in Lumwana, Zambia. My husband Pierre is the Finance Director for the project. We are South African and have been expating since 2000. Over the past 9 years we have lived in Tanzania, Australia and now Zambia. Before we left SA I was employed by Ernst & Young Johannesburg as a Project Manager. I loved my job but being out here in the middle of nowhere (or is it the centre of the universe) is fantastic. This blog is about my life here.
