One week to go...

In a week I leave for Thailand!

First, some background: I have been to Thailand 3 times in the past for climbing and diving trips. On my first trip, I met Pum and Josh. Pum owned a restaurant on Koh Phi Phi and I took a cooking course from her. Josh, from London, had been working in the restaurant for a few months. On subsequent trips to Thailand I always visited with Pum and Josh and spent time at the restaurant...waiting tables, making curry paste, etc. And I got to sleep on a mattress in the storeroom...what a bargain!

About six months ago, Josh proposed a month long cycling trip through SE Asia...and of course I jumped at the chance. So that's how it all began...

I'm leaving the states on March 13, 2008 and flying to Phuket. From there we will ride through Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam...ending the journey in Ho Chi Minh City.
