<h4>Alan in Syros, Greece</h4>
</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>Alan lived and worked in Kenya for eight years, first as a volunteer teaching computer science at a rural college, and later as a Linux systems administrator at a <a href="https://www.ilri.org">livestock research institute in Nairobi</a>. During his time in Kenya he traveled extensively around East Africa and <a href="https://alaninkenya.org" title="Alan in Kenya blog">blogged about his experiences</a>. He is passionate about open-source software, information security, and the freedom of informationnaturally, he <a href="https://mjanja.ch">blogs about that</a> too. Now Alan finds himself living in Bulgaria, the land of feta cheese, alcohol that burns off your nose hairs, and children who light firecrackers for no apparent reason at the playground outside your flat. These are his stories from Bulgaria, the Balkans, and beyond! Наздраве!</p>
