May 28, 2015. June 2, 2015. Unearthing menstrual wisdom – Why we don’t go to the temple, and other practices. Over the last one year, my team has traveled to 8 States across India to learn the origin of menstrual practices and their impact on women in rural India. The biggest surprise was that every time we dug deeper, it always revealed a positive side of the story and it became obvious that none of the menstrual practices came into being because women are impure or unholy. Meaning primal breath or life...

The kids are all right: Mud, sand, water, sticks and fire | Expat Lingo

Observations of a Serial Expat. The kids are all right: Mud, sand, water, sticks and fire. June 16, 2015. In the Netherlands, my tolerance for both mess and risk have increased. Secondly, I know that if we go out when it is mildly warmish, that we will get wet because where there is sand in the Netherlands, there is also water. Thirdly, not only will every Dutch outing be wildly fun and messy, it will also be more perilous because playgrounds here are far less focused on safety than in the US or UK.

Observations of a Serial Expat. Brits, Guns and Serenity: three Turkish beaches. May 19, 2015. Last week, within a small section of Turkey’s Lycian coastline, we were players in our own adapted version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Most days of our trip, however, after lingering over our tea, we wound down the steep mountain roads in search of beaches to play on. This beach is too English. It was quickly apparent from the amount of bare, pink skin on display and the near absence of Turkish being spo...

The adventures and observations of a Westerner in China. Newer posts →. June 29, 2016. Our first impression was that Zhuhai was a lot less crowded than Shenzhen and it also seemed greener and cleaner than most cities in China. The roads were wide and lined with trees, there were a lot of parks and the buildings mostly seemed quite well maintained. In the afternoon we went to the New Yuanmingyuan (Chinese: 圓明新園. The following day we took a trip to the south of town, wanting to spend the whole day at the C...
