Life in the Kara Kum: Lao Lao
http://dropkck1.blogspot.com/2010/02/lao-lao.html
Life in the Kara Kum. During and after Turkmenistan: The adventure never stops. Tuesday, February 02, 2010. Three weeks after I've left Turkmenistan and my head is still spinning. I met my friend Veronica in Hanoi to bounce around SE Asia for a bit and we had a blast. Took motorbikes across Vietnam into Laos because the country, the scenery, the EVERYTHING was soooo beautiful. But when we got across the border we realized we were in the middle of nowhere.no people, no cars, nothing. Next stop: Sydney :).

Life in the Kara Kum. During and after Turkmenistan: The adventure never stops. Monday, January 25, 2010. Wild in the Streets. Ten hours after leaving T-stan:. I arrive in Bangkok and wander around for two hours trying to find a place to stay. I guess it's the high season. Eight hours after arriving in Vietnam:. I am attacked by a dog and he bites my ankle. Don't worry, I've had three different rounds of rabies vaccinations.no symptoms yet. I fall into a swamp. A few days after that:. جلي بلاط جنوب الرياض.

http://dropkck1.blogspot.com/2009/12/two-weeks.html
Life in the Kara Kum. During and after Turkmenistan: The adventure never stops. Saturday, December 05, 2009. I officially have two more weeks as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Turkmenistan. I arrive in Ashgabat December 20 to begin three days of paperwork and exit interviews and then.the world is mine. Sitting in class the other day one of my students said, "Angela, what will happen if you leave? I couldn't stop laughing. "What do you mean 'IF', Jeren? I can't STAY here. I have to go home.". I told her I did.

Life in the Kara Kum: Vampires!
http://dropkck1.blogspot.com/2009/12/vampires.html
Life in the Kara Kum. During and after Turkmenistan: The adventure never stops. Friday, December 18, 2009. December 9, 2009. Awhile back some amazing friends of mine sent me the Twilight series, which I quickly discovered is a huge phenomenon in the United States, as the second movie, “New Moon” just came out. I went through the entire book series in about a week and a half and they were quickly sought after (and still are) by other volunteers as well. 8220;WHY DID YOU TELL US THAT! 8221; they screamed.

Life in the Kara Kum: Good Bye
http://dropkck1.blogspot.com/2010/01/good-bye.html
Life in the Kara Kum. During and after Turkmenistan: The adventure never stops. Friday, January 15, 2010. I knew it was coming but wasn't sure how I'd feel leaving Turkmenistan. I spent the last few days rigorously saying my good-byes, but not really feeling the blow just yet. The night before I left Yoloten I had dinner at my best friend in Yoloten's house and we hugged each other and cried and made plans to hopefully see each other again and never lose contact. Best of luck in the future. جلي بلاط بالر...

Life in the Kara Kum: November 2009
http://dropkck1.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Life in the Kara Kum. During and after Turkmenistan: The adventure never stops. Friday, November 27, 2009. Thanksgiving this year was a huge success, and this is, in my opinion, a hundred percent due to the fact that we did not kill the turkeys ourselves. I think people forget how much work goes into killing and cleaning and preparing an animal for consumption, but last year the process was excruciating and exhausting. Plucking the feathers off of two seven-kilo turkeys is just NOT FUN. It happened last ...

Life in the Kara Kum. During and after Turkmenistan: The adventure never stops. Wednesday, September 30, 2009. September 30, 2009. I was correcting one of my student’s notebook’s yesterday during my break and I came across this:. 8220;My an Engish woman teacher Angela. I wanted to describe my an Engish teacher. Her is name Angela. Her is name was named her exactly because she looks like a angel.”. Saturday, September 19, 2009. September 17, 2009. 8220;So what’s up with your boyfriend? 8221; she said.

Life in the Kara Kum. During and after Turkmenistan: The adventure never stops. Tuesday, March 09, 2010. Back in the USA. I have been back in the USA for three weeks now and it has been a strange experience. I had forgotten about things like traffic, high-speed internet and large selections of salad dressings in supermarkets. But every time I go to a yoga class, concert, or book shop out here, I remind myself that this is where I need to be. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Global In...

October 30, 2009. 8220;You’re American! 8221; the man in the front seat of the taxi yelled at my friend Halley and I. 8220;Yes, that’s right,” we said. 8220;How old are you? 8220;Twenty-five,” Halley said. 8220;How old do you THINK I am? 8221; I asked with a smile as Halley rolled her eyes. You’re absolutely correct! 8221; I laughed. 8220;I have a son! October 25, 2009.
