About the same time I discovered Catholic Podcasts, I started seeking out Catholic blogs. In 2004 or 2005, while cruising through St. Blog’s Parish blog directory, I encountered Catholic+Linux+Monkey. The name was just too irresistible. As a Catholic who monkeys around with linux, I had to check it out. Catholic+Linux+Monkey is the personal blog of Antonia, an IT specialist and Catholic who lives in Singapore.

Over the past several years I keep coming back to it because Antonia recounts her struggles to grow in faith while living in the modern world. The fact that she lives on the opposite side of the world to me also helps me to understand about the Universal Church. I particularly enjoyed her posts leading up to and following World Youth Day in Cologne. I hope she is going to WYD in Australia so I can again enjoy viewing that incredible event through her eyes.
