Nearly on the plane to Fiji, then flying to the capital of Kiribati -Tarawa – on the equator.
It’s a Pacific Calling Delegation including Patrick Dodson father of reconcilation, Phil Glendenning human rights advocate and Director of the Edmund Rice Centre, Tom Zubrycki award winning film maker - www.tomzubrycki.com.
The world is so small – apologies for cliche – Tom met my cousin Ruth Balint (also a documentary film maker) for coffee a few days ago.
Our delegation shared dinner last night in preparation to start our 8 day mission on Monday.
My purpose: As a kids and YA author who writes to gives choices to young people, and as an ambassador for Room to Read bringing literacy to kids in the developing world, I’m on a fact finding mission.
I’ll try to report from Kiribati.
