Seasonal salutations ;-)

I tried sending this out last week-- not sure if it worked-- sorry if this a repeat.

I've just returned from Guinea West Africa where I was assisting a Guinean beekeeping association-- it would be great if we could get some francophone beekeepers to start a "pen pal" relationship with the beekeepers here.  Anyone know of any clubs or individuals who might be interested in doing so?

je suis arrivee de Guinée afrique de l'ouest ou j'assistai une fédération des apiculteurs-- il sera grand chose si je pourrais avoir quelques apiculteurs francophone pour commencer une correspondance avec les apiculteurs ici. Quiconque connaissant un club ou des individus qui pourrait être interrésser peut le faire?

The beekeepers' federation in Guinea is hoping to connect with francophone beekeepers who might be able to assist in donating French beekeeping books and magazines and/or sharing contact information for suppliers of packaging and labels for honey and other bee products.  Any help you can provide along those lines would be appreciated. 

You can respond to me or contact the Fédération des apiculteurs de Guinée via:
