Diving Headfirst: October 2012
http://lifeontheothersideotheworld.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Seizing every opportunity to explore, learn, and love. Saturday, October 13, 2012. Transitions. They can be exciting. They can be adventurous. And yet, they can be really challenging. For all their hype, the thesis of this post (can you tell I'm back to student mode): transitions suck. Looking back, each major transition I have made has been accompanied by a period of grieving, second-guessing, and loneliness. I shouldn't be surprised. It is a natural part of the transition process. I'm reviving the blog...

Diving Headfirst: Johannesburg Update
http://lifeontheothersideotheworld.blogspot.com/2015/02/johannesburg-update.html
Seizing every opportunity to explore, learn, and love. Monday, February 2, 2015. When I first arrive at a field site and tell people I’ll be there for about two months, it always sounds like such a long time. But somehow I blink- and I’ve already been in South Africa nearly a month! And the students have made me feel very welcome as well. Johnannesburg is quite an easy place to live (albeit a bit gated-suburbia and far too racially segregated for my taste). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Seizing every opportunity to explore, learn, and love. Tuesday, October 28, 2014. I never cease to be amazed by people's ingenuity and creative problem solving. On our drives, cheetahs and rhinos sadly remained elusive. But at least we had some incredible lion viewings! All my favorite photos from the trip involve these giant cats. All in all, a lovely way to finish of the holidays indeed. Monday, October 20, 2014. How to become a top-25 triathlon finisher, in 12 easy steps. 6 The day prior to the race, ...

Seizing every opportunity to explore, learn, and love. Wednesday, January 7, 2015. Where in the world is Sarah? Bed #17: We returned to our rooftop camping for Christmas in the Namib. On Christmas morning we hiked one of the largest sand dunes in the world, Sussevlei. Then we lounged under a tree until we went to the campsite’s restaurant for a buffet dinner (thanks, Lauren, for the great gift! I was happy to be able to chat with family, who managed to call my Namibian cell on Skype. Bed#22: As Lauren le...

A Little Catching Up…and a White Christmas. January 14, 2011. Once again I am very behind on keeping everyone up to date on our lives here in Korea. Since I last wrote Moriah has turned 1, we hosted a small Thanksgiving meal, I ran a half-marathon, we ended the first semester of the 2010-2011 school year, and we traveled to and from Minnesota. It is hard to believe how much we have crammed in since the beginning of November. I only posted a couple of his hundreds of pics from that day. Well, as we all kn...

http://slmarcus.blogspot.com/2013/08/jour-55-bienvenue-quebec.html

Not being on a major highway, this is the best we could do for a Provincial sign. We made it in to camp mid-afternoon. Day 61...
