Recently, the internet has been so terrible in Sierra Leone, that James has had difficulty in getting much communication to me. We pay the ZAIN company $100 per month for a mobile USB connection that used to last all month and the ability for James to send hundreds of pictures to me in emails before needing topped off. But the company now charges “pay as you go” and $100 dollars gets you only 2-3 hours worth of uploads, a few precious pictures.
