Finally we have solar electricity installed in camp. No problems anymore charging computers and cellphones. With electricity, we also don´t need to climb up the trees or throw the phone in the air anymore in order to receive sms. We also used to hang up the phones in the trees during the day and those lucky ones who had messages from their loved ones in the evenings!
No hopes needed any longer as with electricity we even have the chance to get internet. Good old times, where we were cut off the world are over (not completely, as we still living in the wild). However, as a researcher, we are highly dependent on the battery power of a computer, as doing scientific analysis on a piece of paper is not taught in universities anymore. A scientist is as good as his computer, right?
