Beginnings


First attempt at blogging...uh oh.... but this seemed a good time. My life is reorienting a bit so it seemed as good a time as any to try this out.

Last month I headed out on a motorcycle trip to southern CA. The goal, besides seeing Death Valley and Joshua Tree Nat. Parks was to jump start my life.

When I returned I put my house on the market along with one of my two bikes. Within 2 weeks both were sold and I had a new assignment from Medecins Sans Frontieres. Amazing what a little intent, a little stirring of the pot, and a dash of abandon will do!

So I am once again in my element: homeless, following my heart, and putting my needs out to the universe. The assignment with MSF is for 4 months in Armenia working in a Drug Resistant TB program. I will work both in Yerevan, the capital, and in 4 of the outlying provinces setting up a new program. That's about all I know at this point.

I'm trying this blog as a way to keep in touch, and pass on my thoughts and some photos on this adventure as well as whatever comes next.

Those of you who are so inclined can sign in as "followers" and get an e-mail when there is an update. Those less inclined can sign in if you feel like it, and the rest of you can ignore it altogether.


What I do hope is that you will use it also, for comments and postings of your own on this blog
