Hi there,

Karel here! For the last years I have been living and working in Asia (Indonesia and India), Africa (Kenya, South-Africa, Ghana and Tanzania) and the Pacific (Vanuatu). I have mainly worked as a Health Economist with a strong drive to make quality health care available in resource poor settings. Besides my work, I enjoy living in new countries, embracing new cultures and exploring the most incredible places (
See a short movie I made about Vanuatu here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPsl5G0i4is&t=6s&ab_channel=KarelHaal

For the next couple of months I will be working in Songwe, Tanzania and I am hoping to meet some people in the area.

Best,
Karel
