Review # 1 was written on 2013-09-02 00:00:00 Jaycee Conde It takes commitment to make a village. It is really difficult to imagine what Ernst faced when he first arrived in Araouane. He must have had immeasurable boundless energy. I now wonder what camel tastes like (chicken? maybe stronger?). So many in Araouane subsist on it along with other stapels. Somehow a craving for dates and strong sweet tea has arisen. Aebi accomplished some marvelous things there, from building basic infrastructure, providing healthcare, establishing economics and political structure too. Could you or I have done half of what he did? Of course his wealth helped immensely.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-07-04 00:00:00 Paula Dunn-johnson The obscenity of mass tourism in struggling paradises could not be shown more eloquently than in this short essay on Antigua, told by a native and addressing YOU - the tourist! What do we actually know of the societies we invade to get our share of sunshine and blue, glittery water? Not that much. What do we actually DO to those societies when we come there for the settings and ignore the inhabitants as mere decoration at best, or as a nuisance at worst if we have a slight problem with (hidden or unhidden) racism? A fierce plaidoyer for more awareness and responsibility, A Small Place targets blind and careless privilege in all its forms: in entrepreneurship, in politics, in luxury travelling... Should be required holiday reading for more sustainable and humane interaction on our struggling planet!
