Well, after a long and arduos process of going to embassies, to police stations, calling around Australia, I finally have my visa for thailand! However, actually this post isn't really focussing on that. I just want to highlight my father's congratulations to me. This is what it said:
"Good work girl, we will celebrate when I return to Sydney, maybe more prawn for you"
As I've stepped into the mission field, my Dad's emails have given me great joy. Take this one from the time I was in Jakarta:
" I was back home on Wednesday morning and now back to office, last night I was thinking about you knowing that you are in Bali.
Take care and have some laksa. Need food money, I will send some."
It was very heart-warming, even if I wasn't in Bali.
And lastly, this one from the time that I had just escaped from Zimbabwe and I guess Dad must have thought I was still about to face questioning or torture and needed some advice:
"You need to be careful in answering their questions. Do not be emotional about the questions, a cool head will provide a rational conversation. Try not to be away alone without any adult company."
I really enjoy how cool and calm under pressure my Dad is. Poor Daddy has had to suffer a series of emails from his little girl detailing all sorts of horrifying situations around the world. I think he handles it quite well.
