Where to next?

We've been back in a place we choose to call "home" in Denver, Colorado for almost four months now.  It feels like a lifetime of change after six months in Darfur.   While  our  work was extremely fulfilling, it left us exhausted, disillusioned about aid work in political conflicts and a little lost as far as the next career move.  Its been difficult to fit back into American life even though there are plenty of friends and family around.  We just don't want to 'do' what everyone else is 'doing' job-wise.  Any job here wouldn't really utilze all of our skills, experience and sense of adventure we've built up over the years.  But does that mean packing off to another foreign country again?  Can we start a family doing this?  Will our loved ones and friends stress out over our well-being again?...

So you can see why I haven't posted in several months.  The mental journey to the next destination is still in progress.

Hi Dee:

It' been a while since I checked out your blog and am glad to hear you are back safe in the US. I'm now based in Dubai - working on another metro project. Drop me your email so we can catch up
