I managed to combine my election monitoring duties with the occassional photo.
Outside every polling booth in Kurdistan was an unofficial referendum on weather
Kurdistan should become a seperate state or stay united with Iraq.
I am sure that they will have a majority vote for a seperate state.

I would like to say thanks to all the people that wished me well over the last few days.
It has been an amazing experience to be here while the people make history.
In Dohuk things went very smoothly with no signs of hostility or other dangers.
