Blogging
You are the eyes, ears, and taste buds of many who will never set foot where you are. Please share some of the “feel” experiences of the place you have visited or served in.
What are the people like? Is the language musical? Or is there a saying locals use that sums up the experience of life there?
What and how is the food?
What are the smells that make you love the place or that are just so … different?
What does it sound like when you go to bed at night? (Animals in the trees or around the living quarters, revelry in the streets, wafting lullabies from the next tent or … silence?)
What is the lasting visual image you will take with you? (Perhaps you could attempt to capture this with a camera.)
