Anjar, one year later...

Dear Lebanon,

I am extremely busy these days studying, reading and working on projects for my studies. I hope I can start blogging again starting next month.
Although I am away, news updates about Lebanon are the first thing I check every morning.

Anyway, here is an article published by the BBC about Anjar.
It is an article by Sebastian Usher who visited the ex-syrian stronghold 1 year after their departure.
