This is the market where I buy meat and vegetables, and also the "parking lot" in front.

This is my newest neighbour. She has a spit wad of string stuck to her head to keep her from having hick ups but it wasn't working.

This is the moon setting over the sea on the morning of Good Friday and the beach. I live on a beautiful island.

My friend ran away to get married, that's the normal way to get married for most of the island here. This is her and her new husband and me with her family and friends.

This is my best Iraqi English student. I'm helping them study English because they are refugees who left Iraq and have been here for a year. Now they are safe but being a refugee is no life. They are not allowed to work, or go to school, they do not get to chose where they will live. They just spend their time waiting. So as they wait I spend time with one family and get to know them and share what I can with them.

This is the brave kid that was a baby in the first photo that was uploaded.

For the remembrance of the birth of Islam's Prophet Mohamed, neighbourhoods all over my Island have had festivities. This is a hair cutting ceremony at the mosque in front of my house.
