I'm alive more, i'm in Tripoli

I’m in Tripoli!

The city founded by 3 city-states way back in the day. Formed as the center of the Phoencian confederacy.

I drove up with a couchsurfer I met earlier today. It was fun, we have great conversation and enjoyed some shwarma while watching Obama speak. This is exciting.

Mari guided me to this lovely pension, with a dozen rooms and 1 (?) bathroom. The old ladies who run it remind me of my great grandma and great-great aunts. The house is full of stuff, with cotton doilies/covers on most of the items (tins, etc..), blankets over the wood stuff, pictures of saints decorating the walls. It’s a treat.
