Due
to crazy schedules and different responsibilities around the world Steve and B
were doing a lot of traveling these weeks. So, to keep things simple and sense B and I wouldn’t be able
to do our regular weekly wrap up we set the theme knowing that it would be for
two weeks.
In
preparing to go to Malaysia in a few weeks I started researching the
country. We called it MY-Laysia
week. I spent some time in the
library and on the internet researching culture, religion, language, art,
ect… I also intentionally spent
time with several people I know who have lived in Malaysia.
The
overwhelming advice that I got from all of these sources was to look and watch
and to eat anything I could get my hands on! That last bit made me nervous when I read about Sup torpedo!
The
thing I notice most about looking into and preparing to go to this new country
was how much it became about being here.
The most valuable information I found was through friends. Friends who live in Perth. My conversations with them became less
about my going to Malaysia and more about my deepening bounds here.
Just
for the record… I didn’t try the soup, but the rest of the food was AWESOME!
