Over the past several months, the "blog" I have watched with the greatest anticipation and read even when I should be preparing for class is by Jeremy Kroeker, a former high school class mate of mine, who set out on a motorcycle trip from Germany to Iran in October. He eventually made it to Iran (without the motorcycle). After wandering through Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan and Israel--all places I would love to visit in the middle of a Saskatchewan winter--Jeremy is now planning a return trip through North Africa. As well as being a motorcyclist, Jeremy is an exceptional photographer, and a fine (and funny!) writer. Here's a sampling:
I survived the Intifada and all I got was this lousy t-shirt
Secret police, camel meat, and unrelated photos (from Iran)
Riding with Hisbullah (from Lebanon)
Jeremy's book, Motorcycle Therapy, is also very good.
Is he Alice's son?
ReplyDeleteDon't you see the resemblance? : )
ReplyDeleteYeah, but I wanted to make sure!
ReplyDeleteI will definitely check out the blog and the book.
