A little bored with the chapter that takes place in Wazir but making progress nonetheless.

It's a saying in these provinces that,"The first time you share tea with a Balti, you are a stranger. The second time you take tea, you are an honored guest.

Excellent. Greg Mortenson reminds me of Joseph and how he is doing the same thing for slum kids in India. Someone needs to write a book about him too :)
