Welcome!

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.
- The Hobbit

Welcome! (or as I will be saying very often, !مرحبا) Here you will find my collected adventures, thoughts, and experiences during my semester studying at the University of Jordan in Amman, Jordan. So stay a while, and listen!

Preparations Continue

Ten days and counting...the preparations need to be documented too, right?  I've been working on gathering instrumental music for my coming trip, because just attempting to do arabic homework while listening to english music is confusing; so listening to english music while everyone around me is speaking arabic is sure to be equally brain-scrambling. With that in mind, I bring you "Tikal" by E.S. Posthumus!



Granted, this song has nothing to do with Jordan. Or the Near East, really.  Tikal is in Guatemala. Regardless this song conjures images of running through the desert but of course not over rooftops like a specific assassin in a video game and has a eastern feel.  It also sounds awesome.  So enjoy!
