To pastures new ...


It is two months since we left the Philippines, and having packed a fair amount into the summer, the last adventure is already beginning to feel quite distant ... meaning it must surely be time to set off on the next one!

Once again the bags are packed - this time with a few more jumpers and better quality waterproofs than we took to the Philippines - as we set off to Northern Ireland to join the long term volunteer team at the Corrymeela Community, an ecumenical community promoting and working for peace and reconciliation among the divided communities of Northern Ireland.  

It is an exciting next step. Closer to home certainly, but once again there are new friends to be made and new challenges to be faced. 

And so the blog continues, perhaps with a lower word count than last year, but something makes me think I will still have plenty to say!
