Fom now on, meteoriteshow will propose again meteorites every weeks on ebay and i hope that you will find the choice large enough. I am currently based in Accra, Ghana, but the meteorites are still being shipped from France, where they are all located. So do not worry about shipment's safety, which will remain the same as usual. Just to give a short explanation about my presence in Ghana, i have decided to go back to this West African country where i had spent 2 years as a French volunteer, teaching mechanical engineering. This was my very first contact with the African continent and my whole life got oriented by this fantastic experience. Therefore i always wanted to come back here and set up a tour agency in order to give a chance to other people to discover this country. The tour egency is now set up and named ABACAR Ltd. and i am planning to organize a tour focused on the Bosumtwi crater. Should this appear to be a good idea to some of you, you can e-mail me any comment to my e-mail address, so that i can do it the best way as possible. Setting up a business in Africa is not an easy challenge and it takes a lot of time, this is why i have not been very active with meteorites all those past months. But i must admit that i am a meteorites' adict and now on my way back! Just one last information (sorry if it is not directly meteorites' oriented); there is a website about my tour agency, that can be seen at www.abacar-tours.com. It is not completely finished but will already give some first idea of the place where i now live, to those of you who are interested. Thanks for checking my auctions on ebay and for bidding of course!!! Best wishes to all of you, Frederic Beroud www.meteoriteshow.com IMCA #2491 Received on Thu 04 Sep 2008 10:47:16 AM PDT |
