KhadijaTeri is an American who has been living in Libya since 1989 with her Libyan husband and their six children.
Her blog, which is also called KhadijaTeri, is about daily life with her family in Tripoli, the capital city of this North African country. Over in Libya the countdown to Ramadan has already started and families are starting to stock up with food and other provisions.

The weather in Tripoli is very hot at this time of year, and KhadijaTeri writes that her children make the most of the cool part of the day by going outside to play between 5:30am and 8am.
I could only give you a taste in this post, but Khadija has been blogging since 2004 so there’s plenty to go at if you want to read more about life in Libya.

The Adventures of Mr Behi started out as an account of life in Iran, explaining aspects of life as well as local customs such as the Persian new year, celebrated this week.
For the last year or so Mr Behi and his wife have been living in Tripoli, Libya, and so the blog more recently contains stories of Tripoli and life in Libya seen through expatriate eyes.
We also thank him for pointing out the very interesting Rageh inside Iran documentary that we wrote about recently in Topics of the World.
