Sightseeing

We try to get out and see some place new every weekend… when it’s not raining.  It rains a lot so we really haven’t been out much.  Here is a video from a night out we had a few weeks ago. Several weeks ago I had a day off work while the kids still hadContinue reading “Sightseeing”

Leaving my Comfort Zone

My new life living abroad has caused me to leave my comfort zone in a big way.  When I think of my life back in Utah, it’s like I was wearing a huge, fluffy, fleece blanket.  It was warm and comfy and familiar.  I loved that fleece blanket.  Moving abroad has meant throwing off thatContinue reading “Leaving my Comfort Zone”

The Same, But Different

So far life in the foreign service is very similar to life back in the U.S..  We do all the same things we used to do.  Only now each task or event is more… complicated.  We’ve done quiet a few things recently that, on the surface, seem routine but doing them is new and challenging.Continue reading “The Same, But Different”
