From 28th Feb. to 12 March 2019, with my PhD student Léo-Paul and Université de Yaoundé I student Narcisse Kamdem, we traveled for two days to the far East of Camereroon, 60 km south of Yokadouma. There were very few collections of Annonaceae from this region. The roads were in bad state and the rainy season was upon us. This led to a hard field trip. Luckily we were hosted by ALPICAM who were very generous and helpful. A lot of trees had fallen on the raod so at one point we were lumberjacks rather than botanists. But fate was on our side as several of the fallen trees were Annonaceae in flower or fruit!

I used to hunt with my dad all of the time, but we do not really do it anymore. Well, we are both busy with work and life in general, so we rarely get to meet each other. Personally, I think that there are lots of people who would enjoy hunting. As a kid, I used to go and shoot the rifle that he gave me. It is a great sport to do, and it helps us be one with nature.
