Karen B's Story
Life
It appears that I inherited a gypsy soul from my daddy because several years ago I retired and wanted the opportunity to live overseas again. I am now in the Foreign Service with the State Department and living in Tallinn, Estonia. Estonia is the northern most of the three Baltic countries, just across the Gulf of Finland from Helsinki.
7/05 I am leaving Tallinn in September for Cairo! I am having a ball and learning so much.
8/5/07: An update on where I am. I arrived in Baghdad on July 25 for a one year assignment. All is well and life is good.
01/30/08: Just found out where my next assignment will be. Woohoo!! I will be leaving Baghdad in July for Brussels where I will spend two years!!
01/09: Arrived in Brussels on September 4, 2008 to start my two years working here at the Embassy in Brussels. It has once again been confirmed to me that I am ...Expand for more
a warm-weather person. I just don't like the cold, wet, darkness of these too far north places!
May 8, 2009 -- After the reunion in the summer, I left for my next assignment which was in Brussels. I was in Brussels for six months when I received a phone call from Ambassador Francis Ricciardone who was going to Kabul to work. He asked me if I would also go to Kabul and be his executive assistant. I accepted and arrived in Kabul on March 29. This is going to be such an exciting year here in Afghanistan. I feel so lucky to be a part of the process.
July 15, 2010 -- On August 31 I will be retiring from the State Department and settling in the Lakeway area of Austin. Really looking forward to settling in and being close to family and friends. As soon as I unpack and get the house set up, I hope to have a mini class reunion!
Best regards to the class of 63!
