People ask me a lot what my favorite/hardest country/ministry/food is all the time on the race, and I find a lot of people are surprised by my answers. So I figured I’d blog about it.
3 favorite countries (from a landscape point of view)
3.Romania (mountains hello/all the bricks/charming little houses)
2.Greece (mountains, harbors, ancient buildings, you could see turkey)
1.Lesotho (all the mountains – one morning we were literally in the clouds I couldn’t see 10 feet in front of me, super green fields, waterfalls, rock pools)
And all of them had 10/10 sunsets ok
3 favorite ministries
3.Thailand (relational evangelism)
2.Greece (refugee camp)
1.South Africa (camp councilor)
3 favorite foods (basically all of Thailand)
Khao soy
Nutella banana naan
Thai green curry
3 favorite airports
3.Seim Reip (Cambodia) – you get to walk to your plane and get Starbucks it’s awesome and they use USD
2.Kuala Lumper (Malaysia) – smoothies, H&M, nandos
1.Singapore – it literally has everything including Starbucks and movie theater and art and good wifi and anything you can think of
3 grossest things I’ve eaten (surprisingly not that bad)
3.Longan (weird Asian fruit)
2.Bean Curd (self explanatory)
1.Tarantula (even though it was only one leg)
3 Toughest ministries
3.Just all of refugee camp – (Greece) Lots of hard situations
2.Month 2 street evangelism- (Romania) I had no idea what I was doing and it was so heavy and almost everyone we met we didn’t get to see again
1.Teaching English (Myanmar) – not for me but I made some awesome friends
most captivating people groups
Malaysian Chinese – they just want to feed you and they laugh a lot and find really random things really interesting
Myanmar and Serbian – (For some reason they were SO similar) The most loving and inviting and loyal and protective people
Islamic – my heart is big for them and they are so hospitable
Thanks for reading,
