» Thailand v Lebanon: Brawls, Pouting, Pitch Walkoffs & Mistaken Identity.
One probably wouldn't expect much out of a Thailand v Lebanon international fixture. Judging by the "stadium" this game was played, everyone else is on ...

» Lebanon retrospective, part tres
My fascination with the political images in Tyre made me into a bit of an “ugly tourist.” I was taking pictures all over the place, and got into some hot water when I tried to take a picture of a banner bearing Nasrallah’s face on the arch that

» Lebanon retrospective, part deux
One thing that struck me throughout my trip was the omnipresence of religion. Everywhere in and around Beit Chabab (which is almost exclusively Christian) there were little religious shrines in stores, in front of houses, on the side of the road, even

» Lebanon retrospective, part one
Yeah, it's been a while, there's lots to show and say, and I didn't want to make a marathon post. Also, a disclaimer: the politics of Lebanon are complicated, but the political is everywhere and thus unavoidable. My comments are just a record of my exp

» Rumors of my blog's demise have been greatly exaggerated...
Dear Lord, I’ve been MIA. My apologies to all three of you who read this blog and who have, I have no doubt, been awaiting my return with impatience. I had internet problems for a while and was without my laptop, and after a few weeks of not being able

» Back from Lebanon
I got back to Abidjan a week ago, just missing the Independence Day celebrations here, but just in time for the Olympics, which is pretty much all I've been doing since I got back. Things have been pretty chill, I'm starting work very soon, and learning t

» Craziness, capoeira, and cops
I've been in Abidjan for just about 10 days now and although in all honesty I've spent most of my time sleeping and consuming all sorts of tropical deliciousness, I've actually done quite a bit. Of course, I've begun the obligatory circuit of visits to fa

» The Random Triumvurate
Miscellaneous notes wrapping up Jordan, Syria and Lebanon: In Palmyra we experienced our first guilt trip from a cab driver. On our second day he caught up to us on the street and whined that we had promised him we'd go to the tombs with him, wh

» Even Knights Should Flush
Five women, three men, two taxis, a long weekend, a war-torn country attempting to reinvent itself. Does anyone else smell a new ABC sitcom...?That's right, we were off to Lebanon with Barry, Sheena, and four of their friends from Damascus (Dustin, Lara,

» Small Town Lebanon
Our voyage out of Beirut (and given the traffic, any trip out of Beirut qualifies as a voyage) took place on a Sunday morning. The Lebanese take Sunday as a day of rest much more seriously than most Canadians do, so this added a bit to the adventure. We c

» Big City Lebanon
Our trip into Lebanon was a bit of an adventure in itself... From Krak des Chevaliers we took a taxi to the town of Tal Kala, and from there a microbus to the border. Things at the border went smoothly enough, but once across it appeared we would be a
