My Neighborhood in Beirut

Recently The NY Times did an article about the small neighborhood that I live in here in Beirut, Lebanon. The article is quite detailed and lists quite a few of my favorite hang-outs.

Goodbye Summer...

Finally the heat is lessening in this sweaty city called Beirut. For weeks I have been waiting for the heat to leave. However, now that it is starting to leave I am regretting not taking advantage of the beach these last few weeks. Are we ever truly satisfied in life?
