Thanks to Julia from Turkey’s For Life I’ve been invited to take part in the 7 Links Project organized by Tripbase. In this post I offer up links to 7 of my old posts to give them a fresh airing, and at the end I list 5 other bloggers who’ve agreed to do the same. After we write our post we tweet it with #My7Links and the rest is up to Tripbase.
So pour yourself a drink and enjoy the stories. (And no worries, a fresh new story is coming soon.)
1 My most beautiful post: I don’t think of my posts as “beautiful,” but this one is special to me in its own unique way. It is, afterall, about the place I sprung from. EXPAT ADVENTURE: PLAYING TOURIST IN YOUR HOME TOWN
2 My most popular post: Jail is one of those subjects that tend to get attention. Make this an African jail and well, here goes: EXPAT TROUBLE: OFF TO JAIL (Part One)
3 My most controversial post: Humor me! OF EXPATS, FOOD, AND REPTILES
4 My Most helpful post: I’m not really in the help and support business, but if you want to get pregnant, try eating . . . EXPAT FOODIE: HOW TO GET PREGNANT
5 The post whose success most surprised me: 20 comments! I was so excited. Okay, I was new at this then. Love this story though, and tell it at parties. Logic is a wonderful thing! EXPAT CONFUSION: THE PROBLEM DOES NOT EXIST
6 A post I feel didn’t get the attention it deserved: Sheesh, more readers could have given me a little pat on the back for my fortitude. EXPAT LAMENT: WHAT HAVE WE GOTTEN OURSELVES INTO NOW?
7 A post that you are most proud of: I’m proud of all my children. Try this one for a laugh: LIVING ABROAD: OH, THE THINGS YOU LEARN!
