A Brit Abroad

Bookmark and Share
My name is Terry and I'm a 50 something year old dis-enchanted ex-pat Brit living in Cyprus. Why am I dis-enchanted? You'll find reasons enough throughout my tumble log, along with quirky items that amused me and things I think need highlighting, and occasional quotes from some of my favourite novels. Oh, and maybe some original work of my own.

CARE: Defending dignity. Fighting poverty.

Been a long time

Sorry to be away so long, too much to do and not enough hours in the day. If anyone’s interested I finished up the job in Baku at the beginning of July, returned to Cyprus and got stuck into all of the outstanding jobs that always seem to be waiting for my return.

But as always there was another job waiting around the corner and now I find myself in Karachi, Pakistan (I get all of the good trips) and yes it is a dangerous place before anyone asks. I have even been provided with a car plus armed escorts for a 30 second car ride between the hotel and the training centre.

I’ll try to add news a bit more regularly from here on in but I still need to get my feet under the table and settle in yet. I have in fact been here before, some 5 years ago but it’s definitely a more difficult environment now than it was then so please bear with me.
