This is the beach in front of my house. The sand bar shifts depending on the time of the year, and now the entire area you can see is filled with sand 3 meters high. That boat really is called Mr. Suave.
In April of 2005 I moved to the Hottest Country on Earth to volunteer as an environmental educator. I traveled at times for hours to find an internet cafe, where I started this blog as a means to inform my family and friends back home that I hadn't died. Now I'm back home in America, but my blog continues because I still live in the middle of nowhere, I still have limited means of communication, I still hope to keep in touch with my friends and family, and I still like to take frequent breaks from work.
