A Detour, of sorts

This week I was asked by my very special friend CJW to write a guest post for his blog The Zipper Jam. I love his blog, and not just because we have been friends since we shared strawberry milk and monkey bars at preschool 30 years ago, but because it is genuinely a great read. He's a gay man writing about travel and I'm a stay-at-home mum writing about, well, being a stay-at-home mum in a foreign country, so our blogs are quite different. But we have the same take on the world most of the time, and I was so thrilled that he asked me to contribute that I couldn't resist. So please head on over there and check out The Zipper Jam, and my post Flying High (then come back here and let me know what you think!).
