In this second volume of AAFSW's "Realities of Foreign Life," 29 members of the U.S. diplomatic community - including employees, spouses and one articulate teen - share their knowledge, research and personal perspectives, broadening and extending the first book's candid insights into the Foreign Service lifestyle. Focusing on the "realities" faced by diplomats and their families outside the embassy or consulate walls, the authors explore topics such as schooling and housing abroad, intercultural marriage, medical evacuations, employment for accompanying partners, and the growing number of unaccompanied assignments. - If you are already a member of the Foreign Service community (and especially if you have recently joined), this book will provide useful and practical information for the fascinating but often challenging journey ahead. - If you (or your partner) are thinking about entering the Foreign Service, this book joins the first volume in serving as a "reality check," offering a clear view of both the positive and negative aspects of Foreign Service life, for partners and children as well as employees. - If you are a student contemplating a career in diplomacy, a friend or relative of a Foreign Service member - or if you are simply curious about the lives of U.S. diplomats and their families overseas - this book will give you an insider's perspective found nowhere else.Binding Type: Paperback

I love this blanket I took my time to write a review.
Color: 03 - Dark Grey, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
If I’m writing a review- this means business lol I never write reviews unless it’s 5 star worthy to me. This blanket is so soft and quality is amazing, it’s not too heavy or too light. It keeps you cozy and warm, not hot and sweaty. The color I got is gray and it’s just what I expected. Highly recommend getting this blanket. It’s my safe blankie lol I freaking love it. Been dreading to write a review but I’m like I must tell the others. Buy it! You’ll thank me and yourself you did.
