Travel -- Notes from Dan's travels

On July 6, I flew to Asia for five weeks. I have never traveled so far, so long, or so rough. I'll occasionally find an internet cafe to post some thoughts, so I've decided to put up a simple email list. Using this list willl save anyone from BS "ooh, that was neat" replies.


The Great Indochina Overland tour is run by Intrepid Travel, who my sister used in Australia and Thailand a few years ago. Intrepid is also recommended by some of my future classmates.


Some Thai fishermen have given me the ultimate conversation piece for my trip. In Chiang Khong (Day 4 of my trip) villagers landed a 646-pound catfish! They pulled it out of the Mekong River (Days 5-6) where I will no longer be dangling my toes.


Please sign up for the mailing list if you're interested in my silly stories, odd observations, and frequent naive blunders. My messages will be honest and likely profane. I hope you're at least a little interested.
