Over the last several months I have tried to absorb every smidgeon of information I could get my hands on about the US Foreign Service. Somehow, the State Department's website just doesn't get into enough detail for me, particularly when it comes to the FS lifestyle. My sidebar has some favorite blogs by Foreign Service Officers. I will likely add some others as time goes by.
Adventures in Good Countries is a particularly well written blog by a young woman who spent her first junior officer tour in Japan. She is a very gifted writer, and her journey from the time she was hired, through orientation in DC and her tour in Japan are well documented. She really should write a book; I find her style to be rather prosaic and hard to "put down."
