Gaza

I'd been following the Free Gaza movement (who later would become famous in horrific circumstances) with some interest and this opportunity came up at the last minute. I was lucky enough to be given holiday at short notice. I went to Larnaca and got a boat to Gaza, where we met the head of Hamas - with whom I was offered a one-off interview - who has not been heard of since. I guess I was hoping for a spread but was told that they were running a picture of Remembrance Sunday instead. I guess it was one of the most frustrating experiences of my life. But I'm glad that the online news story was run (you can read it here), and I met some incredible people.
