Spring Break in Rome!

I am very excited that i will be leaving in a few hours to head to Rome for one week. AUAf is having a mid-term break and most of the international staff will be taking a vacation, flying off to various cities -some to New Delhi, Isanbul (which is on my list), Dublin among others. I will be staying at the Tempio Di Pallade in Rome, located in the center of the city and close to several attractions. I am looking forward to seeing the sights and enjoying great Italian food with friends flying in from Canada. Robbie and Lisa, lets have some fun!

I will also post pics soon of this trip. I have been negligent in blogging, but life here in Kabul kind of takes its own slow time, and it is a full-time job outside of work just making sure you shop, have some essentials, and spend an occasional night out at a cafe or restaurant. There are some surprisingly good restaurants here in the city, but that is a conversation for another time. I miss all my friends and family back home. Take care, more to come....

Jimmy, You have been on my mind a lot here lately. I do miss your smiling face and your upbeat attitude toward everything. I hope you had a wonderful time on your journey to Rome and made many memories.

I have taken another position in the company working for the EVP of Mfg. It is a good position with future promotion potential.

My e-mail is still the same - sharon.wilfred@kingpharm.com if you have some time and want to let me know how life in your neck of the woods is going.

Miss you, Take Care

Sharon

Keep writing and keep safe.
