East Timor is a country in Southeast Asia.
It became the first new sovereign state of the 21st century on May 20, 2002.
My wife works using her English skills, for instance as an interpreter, as a translator or sometimes as a tour guide for whom come from foreign countries.
Two weeks ago, she suffered from a terrible backache and was not able to walk for a whole four-days.
Unfortunately, she had an appointment of an interpreter for guests from East Timor visiting Utsunomiya at that time.
It's impossible to rearrange their schedule nor find a substitute overnight.
Then what did we do? Can you guess?
Yes, I did in her place.
It's bad for me to give up tennis practices from Friday to Sunday, but it was a fun moment and a good experience.
Good job ,Ray ! I can't believe you still had apples hanging on the trees two weeks ago in Utsunomiya :) August till early october , all apples are harvested here in Belgium. I hope your wife's back is better now.
