<description>&lt;p&gt;Alan lived and worked in Kenya for eight years, first as a volunteer teaching computer science at a rural college, and later as a Linux systems administrator at a &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.ilri.org&#34;&gt;livestock research institute in Nairobi&lt;/a&gt;. During his time in Kenya he traveled extensively around East Africa and &lt;a href=&#34;https://alaninkenya.org&#34;&gt;blogged about his experiences&lt;/a&gt;. He is passionate about open-source software, information security, and the freedom of informationnaturally, he &lt;a href=&#34;https://mjanja.ch&#34;&gt;blogs about that too&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After spending some time living in (and &lt;a href=&#34;https://englishbulgaria.net&#34;&gt;blogging about&lt;/a&gt;) Bulgaria, he finds himself living in Jordan. These are his stories.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h4&gt;Sheep carcass lazily discarded in neighborhood dumpster&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;/figcaption&gt;
&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As Muslims around the world are busy wishing each other a blessed &lt;a href=&#34;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eid_al-Adha&#34;&gt;Eid al-Adha&lt;/a&gt;, some poor bastard has to clean up this lazily discarded sheep carcass from my local dumpster (note the entrails spilled below). Keep it classy, Jordan.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;figcaption&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;Sign forbidding sound near mosque on Rainbow Street, Amman&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;/figcaption&gt;
&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The irony is rich with this one, because this mosque has a sound system from another planet. If I wasn&amp;rsquo;t worried about my personal safety I&amp;rsquo;d put up a sign right next to it saying: &lt;em&gt;Please mute your mosque, there is a sleeping Alan 50m away&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
