Last week, I was happy to talk about our Indiegogo campaign and the Maasai Village with reporter Amy Hadden Marsh for the Valley Voices series KDNK Community Radio in Carbondale, Colorado. The interview was a great way to share our story and encourage backers to visit our Indiegogo campaign page, check out our perks and donate online. Audio from the interview can be heard at http://kdnk.org/post/valley-voices-johnny-weiss-talks-maasai-solar-radio. Many thanks to Amy and KDNK for supporting locally grown good causes during this holiday giving season!

Browse these scenic pics from my most recent international trip, including a few of me enjoying chewing some kat while visiting a 5,000-year-old archaeological site in northern Somaliland in October. What’s kat you might ask? It’s a mild, readily available stimulant popular to the region. Another amazing trip for the books! Can’t wait to travel abroad again sharing solar technology around the world.
