[Ict4d] Masiphumelele field trip confirmed for Friday 19 June at 11AM

Wed Jun 10 15:46:00 SAST 2015

Hi everyone,

I am one of the USAID students visiting UCT and would also like to join
you. I have no car either. Originally from Turkey, I am used to overloaded
transportation systems (Metrobus) in Istanbul (please see attached) so
don't mind squeezing into Gina's car if that works for everyone and is
legal in this country :)

I am looking forward to meeting you all during the next ICT4D meeting.
