My most recent post, entitled "Going away party, part one" has been deleted due to an instance of (completely unintentional) defamation of character.
My humblest apologies to those parties that felt slighted and mis-portrayed. Insha'Allah I will do better in future posts.

The Fine Print
This blog is an outlet to share the stories of my time spent abroad, and nothing more. The views and experiences recounted here are mine alone, independent of the Peace Corps and the U.S. government.
