can't believe some of the things I did. The idea of going to Somalia alone, not having a place to stay or security. I was 23 or 24. There was fighting between different clans in the city. I literally landed on the airstrip and had no idea about the town. A truckload of gunmen approached me, and I ended up hiring them as my gunmen, and we went around to these burial rounds where all these bodied were being dumped, and there were all these empty pits. I was thinking, they could just shoot me and put me in a pit and no one would ever know.
