The joys of travel


The past several days have been quite eventful. I have:

  • Been caught sneaking pictures of a cute baby.

  • Been caught sneaking pictures of a cute policeman.

  • Eaten spicy noodles for breakfast.

  • Spent four hours on a train without a seat.

  • Watched my friend and her family eagerly devour a plate of cold chicken feet, complete with toenails.

  • Accidentally ingested a piece of pig intestine.

  • Had my feet forcibly held in a pan of almost-boiling water.

  • Hailed a bus by running out in the street in front of it.

  • Been woken up by the sound of a rooster crowing.

  • Ridden a motorcycle.

  • Been assumed to be from the Middle East because I’m not tall enough to be from a developed country.
