We traveled to Istalif today to visit the medical clinic and meet with the leadership to discuss challenges and needs of the community. Very much like the Barek Aub clinic, they are getting by on just the essentials and yet very hopeful.
We had kebabs at the creek in the village with the Governor and continued the dialogue on how our partner organization can continue to provide developmental leadership and resources. Let me just say this was one of the coolest meals I have ever enjoyed. Lamb, naan, sixty degrees, sitting under cherry blossom trees next to the creek and getting business done. Perfect.
While most of the team took a half hour shopping the bazaar in the village, I enjoyed tea while reclined on a toshak at a local vendor with our host and our chokidor Kushal (my new favorite guy on the planet).
Packing meeting tonight with the team and final prep for our return. Excited to greet my family in Colorado and enjoy a few days of rest. God is good.
