The Ethiopian Experience
Day 2 – 15th January 2023 As long-haul flights go, this particular experience was average with a few very welcome perks. I had a whole row to myself on both legs of the trip! While I didn’t exactly stretch it across all three seats, I did move around as much as I needed to without…

Planning for the Unexpected – See You in Ethiopia?
Day 1 – 14th January 2023 Yesterday afternoon, in the midst of packing my bags and fielding emails and phone calls, I texted a friend to ask him which sermon I should give at services the next day. He opted for the one I already had mostly written. I’m thankful for that since I honestly…

That gave us enough time to walk down the street to one of the open cafes in the neighborhood, at least within…

Dodging Raindrops in Dublin

October 7th, 2022 We woke up late this morning after struggling to stay awake or asleep last night. From my experience it’s easier to adjust to a 5 hour time difference than it is a 3 hour one. Coffee helps. So does falling back asleep after waking up in the middle of the night. While…

Dublin in the Afternoon
October 6th, 2022 Our flight from Newark left about an hour late, but the line through customs in Dublin moved swiftly. We caught a ride from a very friendly and helpful cabby who took the scenic route through the city to our hotel. It was either that or drive through a 5 mile tunnel on…
