I was in Jeddah. We tried to get as close to Mecca add possible at outsiders. There is interesting history in that area, but still there just wasn't much to actually see and do there. The city is completely being torn down and rebuilt with new buildings.
Egypt is the most aggressive place I've...
I haven't been to the Barcelona one, but I have been to the Tokyo one. Japan is a great place to visit. Great food and plenty to do. The Mozambique fish market has been the best one I've been to. Dirt cheap lobsters and great cooks.
I was able to travel inside Ethiopia for the first time. I took a trip to Harar it was pretty cool place. It's supposed to be the birthplace of coffee and khat. It's a old Muslim city and very pretty. Probably the most cool thing and they well known for is the feeding of wild hyenas. It has a...
I have a friend visiting and he really wanted to scuba dive in the red sea and I refuse to ever go back to Egypt. So it came down to Saudi or Djibouti. We chose Saudi. It was a pretty boring place to visit actually. It's the driest place (alcohol) I have ever been. But beyond that it was just a...
I just had some of Lauri's highschool classmates at my house last night. I asked what he was like, they said tall, very tall.
On a side note for the Finnish friends here a band came that you might know Roope Salminen & Koirat. Anyone know them?

I don't see any way this isn't stupid from Dallas. Take a couple days and shop him. At the very least you get more from Lakers if AD is your target. So many teams would have thrown everything for him.
Work trips can be rough, especially that far of travel. Though usually we turn most work trips to a vacation at the end of it as well. I'm early 40s as well. We do have an option to live in DC and then she would travel to the countries for work regularly, but that's rough to me. I would rather...
We don't have kids and like traveling so it's pretty easy for us and I can work remotely. It's a good job and good benefits but living in developing countries has it's downside and some really struggle with that. She works in transportation. We are considering retiring after one or two more...
I just finished 6 weeks vacation. It was fun but I'm exhausted. I went from Ethiopia to Korea to Hawaii to Japan to China to Ethiopia.
Now I'm home today and moving to Cambodia in 5 months. Time to pack up and sell things from my house and travel to Cambodia to find a house. I'll probably rent...
