First Day in Nalchik

Fairly slow day as it was the weekend. We met with the head person in charge of Islamic Relief in the Northern Caucasus. He is a Jordanian brother that had come about 12 years ago here to study. Obviously, he ended up staying after his studies ended. We went out for lunch at a restaurant down the street from the hotel. One thing I have noticed here is there are usually two kinds of meals: heavy and light. Even the light meal is huge compared to our standards and every meal has meat as a main course. Most of the people are very built and not fat nor tall.

Till Next Time,
Babi
