Long-time readers may remember that I snagged a Pew Fellowship in International Journalism back in the fall of 2003, which allowed me to spend six lovely weeks in Zambia.

They may also remember that I blogged about my travels there at zambiastories.com.

They may also remember that I have also set up blogs for close to a dozen other journalists going overseas. And if they’ve ever gotten me drunk, they may also have heard me ramble on about my grand plans for ReportersAbroad.org, a site of mine that has been for some time and very likely will always remain In Development. (Nothing to see there now.)

Anyway, I mention all this because I am currently hosting blogs for four more globetrotting journalists, all of them current IRP Fellows (IRP being the new name of what used to be called the Pew). These fine reporters just left for their target countries Saturday, so their blogs are not yet overflowing with local color, but they will be soon — all have had promising starts. They are:

- Pakistan: Subcontinental Drift, by Aryn Baker

- Colombia: 8,300 Feet Above Sea Level, by Fernanda Santos

- Mozambique: To Mozambique, by Adam Graham-Silverman

- Ghana: West African Days, by Cathryn Poff

You should read them all over the next five weeks. You shan’t regret it.
