on my way to where
After my son's death to a sudden and unexpected heart attack in 2003, I decided to leave everything I knew to go out in the world in search of meaning, or perhaps redemption. I have never looked back. These writings describe my post Peace Corps (Swaziland 2004-2006)travels through Morocco, Mali, Egypt, and India and my present Crisis Corps volunteer service in Malawi. My previous blog, apeel.bravejournal.com, described my time in Swaziland, a small sub-Saharan country that bears the unfortunate distinction of having the highest HIV prevalence in the world.

I have been up on my property for about a week now and hate to leave it. Much of my time has been spent running around taking care of logistical issues, e.g. applying for building permits, registering vehicles, getting a physical for my job, etc. T...
