 | April 2008: SE Asia- Reading My Journal
I decided to do something completely different with the travel writing this time. Instead of picking out a few stories and telling them, I wanted to find a way to convey the whole story of the trip and the internal journey I took. So I decided to do something that’s really scary to me: I’m basically sharing my journal. I didn’t intend to share my journal when I wrote it-I was just writing for myself. So it’s not a literary masterpiece, and it’s full of unenlightened thoughts, un-PC observations, premature judgments, doubts, insecurities, and all that crap, as well as hopefully a few good moments and some interesting stories as well. Entirely unintentionally, it seems to have a definite plot progression, as things go from bad to worse, and then I eventually break through to a completely different experience of Asia. |

Am I destined to see the inside of the hospital in every country I visit? What’s up with that?
The sore throat started in San Francisco the day I left. I guess it was to be expected. Those last few weeks were just too much... |
