There are many more serious blogs that need to make their way to the interwebs from my time in Asia.
But today is not that day.
Because when you spend five months of your life in Asia, sometimes you just have to tell people about the weirdness of that experience and leave the serious things to the journal for later.
My awesome teammate also wrote a great blog highlighting some of the fun experiences of Asian life – you can check it out here: Em’s Blog of All Things Asia.
