Eowyn and I miss you on the fb @wolvendancer you should come back! This is now my.second trip to Kabul, here in june also, + iraq in btw.
received a threat warning today that insurgents are planning to attack flower st cafe and kabul cafe. how do they know? #kabul
hey @kenyanpundit @afromusing @ushahidi have some questions about uchaguzi as we are doing some EOM w ushahidi in kabul whom to ask?
Yelling men w improvised weapons in our guesthouse, NOT Crazies, just angry hungry workers. #thirdworldwin #kabulmorning
Well, @bicyclemark joining @smallworldnews team in #Kabul within the hour, can’t wait! #afghan10 #SWN @louis_abelman here in 2weeks
#swn team member @bicyclemark arrived safely. he is napping at #Kabul inn. #afghan10 #afghanistan
we try to stay under the radar @dltq its fairly safe in #Kabul these days, not like #Baghdad. #SWN its going to be an interesting month.
technically afghani denotes a unit of currency, not citizenship, for the natives “afghan” is the preferred nomenclature @janchip @panthealee
hey @dltq you are behind the times! @bicyclemark is in #Kabul with me and other @smallworldnews teammates, we will keep him safe! #afghan10
4th time at flower street cafe on 4 days. Yeah breaking ramadan! #kabul
Also I don’t consider it jihad to be lazy/dumb all day and gorge urself at night @NaheedMustafa #ramadan #notallbutsome
Would appreciate if some mullah would make a fatwa excepting trainees from fasting during #ramadan. #kabul
Not as easy as that in #kabul @virtualactivism what are you doing there? #swn was there last month u with tizianoproject?
Well I am not going to bust open a coke in front of my trainees! So I am stuck until 3-4pm every day @NaheedMustafa
is anyone following me a sword expert or have any suggestion where to find libraries of antique sword images?
Aaaaand its another #KabulMorning…. lets hope it passes by afternoon.
