Adventures in Kabylia

I went to Istanbul and came back It was awesome. Mosques, mosques, and more mosques, with some chips-covered-peanuts, ferry rides, hookah, and lots of shopping.

Now I'm in Kabylia, the Berber region of Algeria. I figured out how to switch the keyboard from AZERTY to QWERTY, and now I can finally do functional things on the internet, like update my blog for the first time in ages. Kabylia is amazing. It's better than anywhere else I've been. It's James Herriot's Yorkshire mixed with a greener Pamir Highway, snowy Kyrgyz mountain peaks, rolling hills of Austria, and Bulgarian mountain villages. There are palm trees, donkeys, wild monkeys, lots of outdoor markets, and beautiful views everywhere you look. I wish I never had to leave! When I get back to the US where I'll have more reliable high-speed internet, I will add many pictures of this wonderful place.
