A Zababdeh Chicagoan!

Always there are little reminders that we're not so far from where we came. One of the women who works at the school invited us to her house to meet her sister. Her sister lives in Chicago, and is visiting Zababdeh for the olive harvest. Her other sister lived in Virginia for fourteen years. There are an incredible number of people who have family in the States or in Europe - only half of the population of Zababdeh actually lives in Zababdeh!
