Susan Linnee spent 25 years with The Associated Press from Argentina to East Africa with postings in the US South, West Africa and the Iberian Peninsula in between. Before becoming a journalist she lived in Rwanda where she and her husband lived off bushmeat for two years. While based in Abidjan in the Ivory Coast, she developed a taste for the national speciality, aguti sauce graine—cane rat in palm nut sauce. She now lives in Nairobi, Kenya where a mongoose crosses her garden every so often.
