I am a co-founder of the What Took You So Long Foundation. I've been shooting and editing in over 20 African countries, crossed Asia, shooting at the Emirati camel beauty contests and sleeping on too many floors to count, even some beds and one pool table.
Before this nomadic lifestyle I was living as a Peace Corps Volunteer in a village in Ghana without electricity or running water for 2 years working with wonderful and largely illiterate people.
I studied cinematography in the Czech Republic and filmmaking at SUNY Purchase where I am also the founder of "The Cheese Club" which I miss fondly.
Hey Nida, sorry! No one has received anything yet because we are currently finalizing the camel cheese project. At the border of Egypt and Sudan now... wish we could share the milk with you! Expect to hear from us once we're "back in the office." (We'll be moving to Nairobi the end of January.)
Thanks again for your support, Nida!
Warmly,
The WTYSL team
Has anyone received a pledge gift? I haven't received my patch. I also haven't gotten a response to my message via Kickstarter last month.
Fantastic! I love those long-legged ladies.
Be the cheese you want to see in the world! :)
