here I am drinking a coffee in a Vietnamese Banh Mi restaurant, writing a post after finishing my sandwich, and a really awkward British couple on their first date come in and start having a geography contest. “Name 25 countries in Africa?” No not Yemen, you idiot!! Not Georgia either!! I really wanna play this game 🐒 #crossculture
Name 25 countries in Africa!
Now that is a good one, I have worked in about a dozen so could do that.
Awkward British couple I was thinking well yeah so many look awakward when they are abroad. Awesome looking scran btw!
Man, I could only do it thanks to the interest that was sparked from Hive and Nyege Nyege festival. Both of those caused me to learn more. That's crazy! where did you work longest and why?
I worked in the Oil and Gas Industry as a Process Engineer and Project Manager then a troubleshooter in the war zones. Lol Oil and Gas in Africa was rife with wars. Algeria Angola Gabon Nigerian just to name a few. An amazing continent.
Wow! That's pretty hardcore! Have you written about your time there? I would love to read it :-D

To add to this list, there is Benin republic, Togo. I don't know if Dubai is part of it too, hehe, then I think Iraq? Well, that's how far I can go 😅
Dubai and Iraq are Middle East ;-P Guess I should try Middle East and Asia next, though I think there are fewer countries in each.
Oh I see, thanks for making me know, I never knew before.
And it's not out of place to explore more continents
