Greetings Everyone!
Although I have travelled several times to Africa before, this was my first trip to francophone Africa. Being the size of Western Europe, the trip to the Democratic Republic of Congo showed me a whole new side of war-ravaged North Kivu, which I had only read about before. Not only being stunningly beautiful, after meeting the clients we serve and hearing about their troubles in providing for their families, I am now even more inspired to work hard to expand our client base and get some our newest products off the ground. It was great to meet PMI employees in the DRC; David MASOMO, the IT officer, and Console, the loan officer; and I feel like I've known them a much longer time. Even though my French is extremely limited, the time we spent there felt incredibly helpful in trying out loan modalities against the clients’ own opinions and reaching out to others in the city for future partnerships.
Some of the things we did while in Butembo- North Kivu, DRC:
The Eastern part of the DR Congo is the first targeted market. With its recent past dominated by decades of unrest (war) the DR Congo is one of the countries left behind in the microfinance era. 
With a population of over 60,000,000 and a low level of formal employment the DR Congo is a huge market for microfinance
