Driving through Erbil

Our colleague N drives us around Erbil at night. I am already used to curling up in the front seat, listing to his tapes of ABBA and Boney M, while N tells stories about his life.


Tonight when I got back into the car after dinner, I said to N, "How are you?"

N responded, "I am okay if you are okay."

That is just what - just exactly what - JB, our chef in Congo, used to say to me every morning.


I love that.
