Hello all, Well well well, I haven’t been good with stories lately, have I? I shall have to make up for it here. But first, a quick rundown on all the busyness that has kept me from writing thus far! Youth work continues to be crazy busy, and I love it! I love visiting IAB…
Hi everyone! Took me longer than I planned to get to writing this update – sorry! I’ve been pretty busy over the past month. Lots of youth ministry activity, I’m working hard on the Youth-in-Asia stuff, and I finally went to see a doctor after a couple of bad migraines. (It’d been over a year…
Hello Everyone! 2011 is off to a crazy start – just the way I like it… I spent two weeks in Cambodia, today is Australia Day, and next week is Chinese New Year. The line 15 subway opened at the very end of December and it is also a new best friend – travel time to…
Hey everyone, This isn’t a regular update email. Instead, it’s some China storytelling! I was reminded recently that one of the most popular updates I ever sent out was the “Water Stories” of last summer (July 2009). So I’ve been on the look out for some stories to tell you – so here goes! Cold…

Hey guys, So my CDs in the USA and Australia are already being sent out to those of you who bought copies. The China portion of the CDs has been stuck in China customs for a month and now it looks like they will be sent back to the USA. This is frustrating, obviously. It…

I will be moving house on Saturday afternoon!! Yay!! I still have a cat in need of a new home – Lanlan is about two years old and very cute. If you or anyone you know would be interested in taking him please let me know ASAP! The apartment Bec and I originally found fell through…
I am writing this as a group email cos I don’t think I can handle telling it more than once. Short story: Bec and I will not be moving into the apartment I told you about already, and we will not get our deposit back from the landlord. I’m going to skip some less relevant…
So! Lots going on in TanyaWorld! Bec and I looked at an apartment on Friday and put a deposit down on Saturday! There are some things to resolve but overall we feel a real peace and confidence that this is The Place and that, therefore, everything will fall into place sooner or later. It’s 200m2,…
So here’s the story on my new apartment! Bec went to The Seasons on Friday afternoon to see an apartment. It turned out to be in the same building and same room number as the place we already saw – which meant almost certainly the same floor plan. Anyway, they knocked on the door for…
