11. Fish Tacos

These are shockingly good fish tacos and have been known to be the sole reason I've left my house some evenings.

Life hack: if you don't love raw onions, like me, order them without onions. That's what you're looking at here.  The tomatoes are fresh and theres a little bit of cilantro and a shmear of hot sauce that doesn't cause your tastebuds to numb but does give it a lovely little kick.   Squeeze a little lime juice on it before eating to take it up a notch.


If you like raw onions, go for it.  There are a lot, though, you've been warned! 

Available at Golden Beach, pairs very nicely with a margarita and a sunset! Enjoy!

One of the things I wondered about a lot before moving to Liberia was where can I run?   I detest running on a treadmill, and the gym here is super expensive anyway. But as a woman running alone, safety is always paramount, and I'm not a fan of running through sewage, or around too many people, or while receiving nonstop harassment from the people I'm running by.  Today's life hack: Sea side, Sinkor.  It's become my favorite place to run.  The roads are good, and wide, and not very busy.  There's a lot of embassies and other buildings with security guards standing around, and the loop down Payne street from 20th down to 9th street and back on Warner is just shy of 3k without any twists, turns, or getting lost.  Not too much harassment either.   Lila Brown is a great restaurant to meet at and eat brunch afterward!  Have a great run!

2. Multigrain Bread

If you're anything like me, it doesn't take long in Liberia to crave a good whole grain, nutty, seedy bread. The sweet white stuff sold on the side of the road might be good occasionally, but after a bit it feels like I'm eating cotton candy or bread-flavored air.   The 'whole wheat' sliced bread I've been able to find falls apart super easily and is also relatively tasteless.  You CAN find delicious whole grain bread, you just have to know where to look.   Stop & Shop on 17th and Tubman.   Go to the back left of the store, where the bakery is.  It's usually set on top of the bakery counter! There was a pile there today, when I stopped in, but sometimes there's only one or two loaves. Sometimes you can tell it's been frozen and thawed.  It's still soft and delicious, I promise.    Sometimes you get there and it's still warm, right out of the oven.  Then it's exceptionally delicious and you may accidentally e
