Socks
Good idea keeping your socks on while on the bus. I hear they take offence to bare feet being on show over there.

Just cleaning up some old computer stuff, and hadn't read this entry in its entirety...wow. I've always been interested in doing something like this, but never make the time, plus, I'm a little nervous! You really inspire me. Are you still in Boulder? Really hope you're doing well, and hope to see you sometime soon. Ashea

Lovely read - nice prep
Thanx for a lovely read. I've booked myself for a shorter (non-structured) silent mediation retreat and this made a lovely preparation. Loved your little insights and your light sense of humour.

Oooh, you might be on to something there! I often got the impression that I was in one of those books when I was weighing my options, especially in transportation situations. A whole series . . .I like it!

fav
I think this might be my favorite one yet! I think you should name your travel guide book - Choose Your Own SE Asia Adventure....then we can complete a whole series of locations.

Ditto on the whole blog, well written! And I love that they have named the Banana Pancake Trail. Exactly as you said, spot on. But oh how I miss it so sometimes... :)

Well done Laurie...though rewarding, I can tell this was a challenge as well. Loved reading about it, especially the music tracks throughout!

hahah I love this! Definitely hear ya on the personal space...my favorite was spooning with a 50 year old Laos woman (because it was the only way to fit) on the 'bed bus' to the south. Quite the experience!

I should have saved some for people at home- I didn't even think of it! I was so embarassed about passing them out that I threw the rest away. Except for one that I have stuck to my laptop, but I filled in the red shorts with marker to make it decent!

Yeah, I tried to do the positives first so it didn't seem too negative!! Thought of all our conversations as I was typing it, too.
