Passport is back

Boston.com's international blog is back with a renewed mission, to give current or former Boston-area residents a chance to "report back" to the boston.com community on their experiences as they travel the world.

If you are planning to travel abroad for work, study, or pleasure, and would like to share your observations of world events and the people caught up in them with boston.com readers, please contact the Globe's assistant foreign editor, Kenneth Kaplan, at K_Kaplan@globe.com for more information.
