I'm moving around some diaries I wrote, and I started reading the one I kept in Timor-Leste, and it's full of details that of course I'd completely forgotten. THANK YOU, past me, for writing things down!

Like this:

"More notes I made from the early morning in Dili: lettuce and other greens on the roofs of taxis; at one place where we waited, a little boy shooting tiny rubber bands through a gate at sparrows."

Or this from the bus from Ainaro back to Dili:

"Across the aisle from us, someone had a rooster, a hen, and some chicks shoved underneath the seat. I don't think they were in a cage, and yet they didn't flutter all over, but sometimes the rooster would crow, and the chicks would cheep."
