New Year, New directions
For the past three years, I’ve travelled all over the world doing programming jobs/network administration for aid-related projects. I rarely share my stories about these trips, thinking that they’d be pretty dull. But as the saying goes, God is in the details. So: I pledge to travel blog more frequently.
On that note, I just arrived in Lusaka, Zambia, to continue work on a LAMP project. Throughout my flights, I was more aware than usual of the American accents I heard going from Cape Town -> Joburg -> Lusaka. Amused by one bright-eyed American who was explaining American politics to a couple of Zambians - I heard him mention Bush several times loudly, but I really did not care to evesdrop on which side of the fence he is on. Nice ride to the hotel with an ex-pat American family - the kids were a tad cranky, but I enjoyed seeing how much the Dad savoured his cigarette while the kids were bickering amongst themselves. A small moment of bliss…
