Honolulu
Actually a picture from another trip to Hawaii...don't have a camera now :-( "(I am) happy with that inordinate happiness that comes of exhaustion and achievement, and with which nothing else in life - no joy of either body or the mind - is even able to be compared"
- George Orwell, Burmese Days
So after…
- Spending 5 months…
- In 8 countries (US, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Australia, Malaysia, Myanmar)…
- On 3 continents (North America, Asia, Australasia)…
- With people of 35 nationalities (Canadian, Korean, Malay, Indonesian, British, Turkish, Kiwi, Ozzie, Brazilian, Indian, Spanish, Swiss...)…
- While sleeping in 58 different beds in 58 different hotels, guesthouses, bungalows, dorms, ships, trains…
- In 55 different towns, cities, and villages (Bangkok, Pai, KL, Hoi An, Pakse, Sydney, S’Ville, Siem Reap, Pak Beng, Nah Trang, Koh Tao…)…
- Accessed using 31 means of transport (planes, tuk-tuks, boats, trains, horses, elephant, jumbo, truck, tube, bicycle, moto, subway…)…
- While reading 45 novels, books, magazines, maps, and guides…(Orwell, King, Welch, Greene, Crichton, Lama Surya Das, Time...)...
- And filling hundreds of pages with thoughts, impressions, feelings, descriptions, names, places, dates, times…and of course trivial numbers like those I have listed here…
...I am back in Hawaii.
And for the first time in my life, I have to say that there is nowhere I’d rather be then the USA.
