WaSapninJordan

http://wasapninjordan.wordpress.com

As the saying goes ‘where I lay my head is home’. Jordan has been our home for the past year and a half. Having moved from the UK, we have had to adjust to life in Amman. This blog is to help those who venture on a similar path.
So why the name ‘wasapninjordan’? Well to cut a long story short I grew up in the East End of London and the people there have a habit of eating words. So ‘What is happening Jordan’ very easily becomes ‘wasapnin jordan’. Hence the name.
