It is difficult to describe what an elephants’ skin feels like. The skin is very much like ours, except on a much bigger scale, which does seem to make sense, as they are much larger than we are. The skin of the elephant I was on was grayish brown. The skin is littered with massive […]
The format of this blog is because we were trailing a tourguide getting a tour for free, and the tour guide explained that the creation of Chiang Mai, the building of Wat Phra Singh and the building of Wat Phrathat Doi Suthup were all related. Apparently you get what you pay for, as this has […]
For those of you who have never run with the hashers, it’s difficult to describe a run with the Hash House Harriers. In a general sense it involves running and drinking.

Let me tell you, that black man is me. I am so dark that you can only see me when I’m smiling.
I have a tan, a tan of mythic darkness. I hope it fades, I can’t see my hand in the dark
I have spent the most relaxing three days in Ha long bay, […]
Let me check if I have all my pieces… I do! I’m in SaiGon and I’ll be flying to Hanoi in a few hours. But I am intact and the storm didn’t even really touch me, so I don’t even have any compelling photos of devestation. It would have a made a good story.
