I'm looking for the right place to carry out a research grant in the middle east. Yemen seems so interesting but would I be welcome or scorned as an American woman?
I'm a photojournalist but my grant would be more about social living I don't have to arrive as a photojournalist I can come as a scholar for my grant
. I haven't been about to find much info about journalists in Yemen and wonder what is going on.
I know there was protesting last year 2011 but would like to know if things have settled down. How are feelings towards Americans such as myself- American woman? The news is so sporadic and unreliable it's hard to know. I would appreciate any objective and honest first hand information. I would love to come to Yemen but I also want to feel safe enough to walk down a street with my camera. thank you . please email me at sbjorkgren at Yahoo.com please feel in the spaces and change at to @. I'm trying to avoid spam.
thanks in advance
