shmaoist inshmurgencies
went out w/ F last night. and at the risk of losing my only english-speaking friend here, talked about how excited i was to see the nanpengyou in december. think it was fine. last night was nice and all but just made me miss the NPY. the distance thing isn’t as much fun as it sounds..
anyway.
so good news - i’m leaning away from cambodia, which everyone thinks is unsafe (pol
pot’s the only thing ppl can think of when it comes to cambodia..), and really really
leaning twds: Nepal!! where there perhaps are some Maoist insurgencies, but no one who
can’t be paid off for less than 10$. plus i heard they give you a receipt for
bribes/forced “donations”. -tax refund??
all i have to do now, is decide between trekking for a week, or doing and learning to teach
yoga for a week. i want to do both. really badly. but if i want to make it to I’s by my
bday and such i’m only going to have around 10 days.. i think i’m going to go w/
trekking. it’s cheaper too. and character building. both are dirt cheap. if you can
afford to get to this part of the world, you can live like a king once you’re here.
(shanghai not included)
hmm..maybe i should think more about xiamen and the tests i have
coming up before i start planning the fun time? maybe not.
