trying to see the world...: How quickly I forget...TIA
http://amyleahpotter.blogspot.com/2014/08/how-quickly-i-forgettia.html
Trying to see the world. Sunday, August 31, 2014. How quickly I forget.TIA. 8220;This is Africa”(TIA). A phrase that will mean so much to anyone who had visited the continent. An expression that seems to most often be used as an explanation, or in some cases a justification for a pace unlike one most ex-pats are used to. This current trip marks my sixth trip to Africa, and while I fall short of a well-seasoned African explorer, I really ought to stop being surprised at “TIA”. With an inadequate amount of...

trying to see the world...: 2015 - Lesson Number 1
http://amyleahpotter.blogspot.com/2015/01/2015-lesson-number-1.html
Trying to see the world. Thursday, January 1, 2015. 2015 - Lesson Number 1. My time in the Middle East has taught me that many times initial perceptions are often far from the truth. Our 2014 New Year’s evening started off disappointing as we arrived to discover that "bar onsite" as advertised on the hotel website was more of a future dream rather than a current reality. The kind desk clerk was able to call around and secure us a table at another hotel that guaranteed dinner and. Expecting to walk into a...

trying to see the world...: Camel Racing is a Real Thing.
http://amyleahpotter.blogspot.com/2015/01/camel-racing-is-real-thing.html
Trying to see the world. Friday, December 5, 2014. Camel Racing is a Real Thing. Some things are surprisingly real. I think when I was a kid I read a book that mentioned camel races. Camel races! Some delightfully fantastical creation – like little blue dwarfs living in toadstools or Pegasus tea parties – such things could never be real. And then I went to Al Wathba. All of us. The camels start tearing down the track while we lay chase in an SUV in the far lane. As we round the final curve in the 8km / 5...

http://amyleahpotter.blogspot.com/2015/04/never-trust-women-in-faux-fur.html
Trying to see the world. Saturday, April 4, 2015. Never trust a women in faux fur. I became fixated with her…I watched her saddle up to the counters of customs agents, attempt to latch onto other groups and even pretend she lost her number in an effort to get ahead. I became intent at thwarting her plans to supersede what was left of the system in place. I actually developed an eyeache staring at her and her sneaky movements. Labels: Kuwait (April 2015).
