    Not many countries where you can ski all day at a fantastic ski resort (#Mzaar) and then drive an hour and have a swim in the beautiful sea! #Lebanon๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Here with my colleagues from Sweden ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ช and Denmark ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ (true Vikings!)

    A year on, I reflect on the #Beirutblastโ€™s devastation, including the tragic loss of 2 year old Australian, Isaac Oehlers. I placed a plaque in his memory at Villa Audi, where he played, with an inscription by his parents, Sarah and Craig. My heart goes out to all those mourning.

    Congratulations to ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡งโ€™s Hady Habib on his fantastic win at the @AustralianOpen today. I was so pleased to be there to see it. And amazing support from the ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ-๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง crowd! Hady played with great determination and was calm under pressure. It was a match to remember!

    #Manoushe Day is officially a thing! Today, the Embassyโ€™s staff honoured this exceptional breakfast food by gathering around the traditional #Zaatar, #Jebneh & #Kichq pies. The best way to enjoy your manoushe is with a cup of tea ๐Ÿ˜‹

    I am back in town after leave. #Beirut is still so beautiful, even after such a dreadful year. This Christmas I pray 2021 brings better days for all.

    Congratulations #Rebirth_Beirut & @AUB_Lebanon for lighting up #Beirutโ€™s iconic #Corniche! What an amazing difference it makes to this important public asset! Walking & running along the Corniche in the evenings is now even more enjoyable!

    Just over a month since the blast, we join Beirut in remembering beloved 2 year old Australian Issac Oehlers. My prayers are with his family, and the other families who lost loved ones in the blast.

    Lebanon ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง is not only a country with much physical beauty, it also boasts a wonderfully rich cultural heritage. Recently I have been lucky to go to the amazing Baalbek & Beiteddine Music Festivals to see some memorable performances set against stunning backdrops! #VisitLebanon
