While I was in Albania, I had it in my deepest interest to buy something truly Albanian. My goal was to buy something that I could keep with me most of the time and would remind me of my brothers and sisters in Albania. It would be a constant reminder for me to pray for [...]
My week has come to end and I am able to take a few moments to give another report on my week in Albania. By the way, I have gotten my film developed and I will be placing a photo page on line soon for everyone to view. I hope to be able to do [...]
It has been a few days since I have been home from Albania, but I think that part of my heart longs to be back there. Last night I had a long, distinct dream set in Albania. I don’t know if that is common for other people in similar circumstances, but I am experiencing the [...]

I flew on my first commercial airline flight a little less than a year ago. So this is my first international flight. I was reminded by [...]
I am chompin’ at the bit! In less than two days I will be leaving for Albania. Before I leave I have two tests and a paper to write. I have to pack and do a few other odds n’ends…I want to leave right now! – but I must remember that there is a time [...]
