Please feel free to visit our website to learn more about the South African Institute for Objects Conservation <URL:http://www.sainst.org> My wife, a ceramics and metals conservator of 23 years experience, was born on the border of Lesotho and spent the first 18 years of her life on her parents' farm within sight of this faraway mountain kingdom. Hazel has been to Maseru, speaks the local language (South-Sotho) and should be able to assist you in various ways. We reside in South Africa of course--which encapsulates the land-locked Kingdom of Lesotho--but look forward to lending you any assistance that you may find helpful. Please do tell us a little about your mission, conservation specialism(s) and so forth?
