Ben Pomykala served in Lesotho, Southern Africa as a Peace Corps Volunteer from 2004 to 2006. He was a permaculture and nutrition advisor in the south mountains of the Quthing District, serving the agricultural need of 4 schools, 3 community gardens, and the local health clinic. This is a glimpse of his day to day life in the villages.

Great job on the video Ben..I served in Ha Ramabanta 97-99 before digital cameras were around. I still miss the mountain kingdom. Too bad you didnt catch the tokalosi on film.

Super videos. Brought back my PC memories from 1977-1979 in Seforong. The Basotho are amazing people. Pass the joala at that mokete.
