Playing backgammon somewhere in Zokak el-Blatt |
I have gone on my annual Trek to the Motherland: I have
to replenish my body and soul with energy in order to be able to deal with
another year of Lebanon. It is a country of incredible beauty and wonderful
people, but the place is a paradox. What you experience in Lebanon in one year,
you experience in another country in a life time. The pace of living is so fast,
yet so relaxed at the same time, that it drains your energy like no other
place. And so I have gone to re-energize.

Enjoy your holidays and thanks for your blog. It's always nice and refreshing to know what westerners like yourself really think of lebanon and it's people.
Cheers.
Have a good and energizing holidays. Oh yeah, and good luck for Holland ...
As a famous journalist based in Beirut once wrote; I may love my life in Lebanon, but to love Lebanon you need to be Lebanese.
I am Lebanese and do not love Lebanon
