VIKINGS IN OUAGA

Alea jacta est

I’ve spent the past few weeks in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire and, let me tell you, country #29 was kind of amazing. On a revolutionary level (civil war, yo!).  However, my camera was gâté (broken) for the whole thing.  I’m going to spend some quality time with my spirit animal until I find a solution.

Wander
Find hidden gems with a goal-based adventure tailored to you.
  1. I, as a rule, avoid sharing the work of others. Frankly, if it didn’t come out of this head, what good is it? Right? Right?!
  2. I believe that smart phones rank somewhere around Ebola on the  evil things list and plan on hanging onto my flip phone until Steve Jobs rises from the grave to rip it out of my hands. 
  3. Despite 1 and 2, today I’m going to do some shameless promoting of the magnificent work of a good friend of mine. Honestly, the idea of being able to Wander has almost convinced me to cave and sell my soul to the Digi-gods.

At the very least, you can take a peek.

Routines

Many people have post-work day routines. Some head to the gym for a nice sweat session. Some race home to catch their stories. And some prefer the comfort of the pub for some liquid de-stressing. I, however, snap on a surgical mask and board up my windows in anticipation of the inevitable afternoon sandstorm I see racing towards us from the Sahara. 

When did this become my life?

Dearest Africa,  Our days together are officially numbered. And, frankly, you’re getting a bit clingy. We need space. Beginning in September, I’ll be moving to Grenoble, France to study medicine at the Université Joseph Fourier, after which point we can evaluate this relationship and see where we want to go with it.  En espérant que cette solution vous paraîtra intéressante, je vous prie d’agréer, Madame, l’assurance de ma considération distinguée, VikingsInGrenoble

Sandstorms: One of the many delights of hot season. Also, thanks to the window that smashed over my head as I lay in bed, not only do I look like Edward Scissorhands, but I now also have tie-dyed sheets.
