Practice in the Balkans


It is always good to hear from Tim, a Buddhist trainee, who I've know for quite a long time. He lives in Kosovo and has been rebuilding a house in the mountains. Hard work for both him and his wife.

Thought it would be good to take you off to explore life in the Balkans. A still beautiful, yet still war worn, part of the world attempting to get back on it's feet. In previous letters Tim talked about his work in a refuge camp making tough decisions about the water supply. Water to drink, water to wash in and ohmygosh, no water at all. That must have been perhaps two years ago now.

I'll keep checking on the house project and hope Tim branches out to include other aspects of his life on the blog.
