Looks like they caught the guy who scared the bejeezus out of us in December.
The Little Art House in Eastern Congo. It's not all bad news coming from Goma.

| Feelin' fine in DRC. Too bad nobody asked. We're gray on the map, as usual. |
An excellent list of some really great reading.
What happens when kids only see white people in books.
Emma Thompson would rather have a root canal than join Twitter. Ditto.
And when your entire life is about to change, I've found rewatching every episode of Sex in the City is a very effective coping mechanism. 10 years later, here's how the seasons ranked.

Doing my pre-flight reading. Not sure about the "lady" part, but this is pretty good advice.
This is amazing. (Where are my scrunchies and stirrup pants?)
Gentrification.
Too many claim white people are at risk in communities of color. Really, it's those communities that are threatened.
Is "doing what you love" actually the best advice?
How do you feel about this depiction of Kinshasa and the final, take-away message:
My ultimate advice? Simple: don’t go to dangerous places like this unless you have a really, really, really important reason to go there.

No cheese? There's always the over-the-top birth plan to get you through. I may have once been handed a birth plan by a patient that instructed me to call in a sushi order after delivery.
Just totally laughed my way through the article "How to Survive a 10 hour Flight like a Lady". So perfect, so true, so funny!!!
ReplyDeleteThat depiction of Kinshasa is... oh my lord. That's the kind of narrative that made my mother lose sleep at night, thinking that I was gonna get robbed all the time. The real message is: put your own name on your freaking luggage tag, DUH. And make sure you have people's cell phone numbers so you can borrow a phone and call whoever you need to call when you land. DUH. And just... don't be a sucker. Suckers get robbed all over the world, not just in Kin. So lay off the "most dangerous place on earth" attitude. I usually try not to be rude... but what a stale, janky perspective.
ReplyDeleteRight on. That's the reaction we were hoping for. Could you copy and paste and comment on his post too???
DeleteA GREAT SPELL CASTER (DR. EMU) THAT HELP ME BRING BACK MY EX GIRLFRIEND.
ReplyDeleteAm so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much. I had a girlfriend that love me so much but something terrible happen to our relationship one afternoon when her friend that was always trying to get to me was trying to force me to make love to her just because she was been jealous of her friend that i was dating and on the scene my girlfriend just walk in and she thought we had something special doing together, i tried to explain things to her that her friend always do this whenever she is not with me and i always refuse her but i never told her because i did not want the both of them to be enemies to each other but she never believed me. She broke up with me and I tried times without numbers to make her believe me but she never believed me until one day i heard about the DR. EMU and I emailed him and he replied to me so kindly and helped me get back my lovely relationship that was already gone for two months.
