Meet Maram. I had the pleasure of meeting this pharmacist and business owner from Jordan. What a special treat. Maram you are an inspiration to not only women in your country but to all women! You go girl!!! Come and visit me!
Of course a trip wouldn’t be an adventure without a little excitement. Flooding disrupted highways as we made our way to the airport on Wednesday morning. You knew just based on the force of the water there would be major impacts to certain areas of the city. Once I got home I learned this was the worst rain in 80 years with waters rising up to six feet high cutting off the route to Istanbul’s main airport and killing over 20 people. My guess is we were about 1/2 hour ahead of it. Our taxi cab driver was a gem and did all the reroutes he knew to get us there…and I’m sure he couldn’t wait for the next call to prayer either.
