Brownie, I'm so glad you've enjoyed your time in African and am awaiting your next adventure to make us all wildly jealous of you once again. But for purely selfish reasons I'm glad you're coming home. Can't wait to have you back with us. I have no doubt that before you know it you'll be packing up for another jet set to some exotic location. Looking forward to being back home with you,
hugs,
Balchin

And I thought it was "Administraive Assistant" Well who was to know that secritaries were secret service agents in disguise? Perhaps I would have go to secritary school if I had known that...
Yay back! Hey Linds, I have to say, it was great seeing you during your vacation. I am SO glad to know that you're enjoying yourself and that life is "grande" for you over there. Keep up the the sucking of the marrow!

Hello from Canada Hi Linds! It's been a long long time and when I finally run into Katie Belcher on facebook I'm told that you're having the adventure of a lifetime in Africa! I checked out your blog, and although I must confess I didn't read EVERYTHING, I'm hooked. I hope that the next time you're home in Ottawa (who knows when that will be with all your Australia plans and whatnot) that we can get together and catch up. I miss you girl, and I'm sorry I've been so awful at keeping in touch! Take care, Amanda
incredible you are an active diva! way to go linds...so proud of you and Guy!! Im tired sitting here just reading about it.....
Happy Tuesday right back at you!
xoxoxox
and............ Linds, you didn't quite finish the cop story but I'm thinking that since you had an opportunity to write this blog, you didn't end up in prison..... So...my daughter chases cops in Burkina!!! Congrats on the success of your tradeshow!! that is really terrific news. I am sure you will be able to sweet talk some sort of consessions from the Mining Minister. I will send some training wheels for your bike! If you fall off and skin your knee, just call home and I will send a kiss to make it better xoxoxo mom
After a great trip around West Africa in 2006-2007, this blog is back due to popular demand! This time, the destination is Australia. I will be studying a Masters of Corporate Environmental and Sustainability Management at Monash U in Melbourne. Stay tuned for all the excitement. :)
xoxo
