Yes, that’s right. I have a new Digital Camera! I bought it a few hours ago here in Bangkok, after a full day of shopping and comparing prices. Shopping is so exhausting! After all my price comparison here on Sunday, where I went to the IT Mall and to MBK, I decided to try a […]

Hey there! I'm Aaron and this is my travel site, where I document my adventures to all corners of the world. My love for travel started at the ripe old age of four, when a midlife crisis uprooted my family to Ecuador for five years. Since then, I've been to countries on 4 different continents. When I'm not blissfully on the road, I reside in New York City, where I become the ultimate travel junkie and spend my days dreaming up my next great adventure! Read More...
Well, I dropped my Ethics in the Media class. Today was no better and I realized that I would be rather miserable spending 7 more weeks in the class. So I dropped it and replaced it with a class called Buddhism East & West, which is taught by my Intro. to Buddhism class last term, […]

Well, this is it….my last night in Vietnam. The title for this entry is the title of a song from the musical Miss Saigon which is sung the night before Saigon fell, or as they say here, was liberated. The world isn’t ending, but my trip to Vietnam is! Aside from losing my camera, this […]
I suppose you’re wondering what that loss is…my camera! My wonderful camera that has the photo record of my entire trip! Gone! I believe I accidentally left it on the train last night and one of the cleaning people or someone probably picked it up. It made this morning quite hectic. But let me start […]
For my last day in Sapa I decided to take it easy and relax in this relatively peaceful mountain village before returning to the chaos of Hanoi tomorrow, though I’ll just be there very briefly. The other part of the reason for taking it easy is that I haven’t been feeling too good. My calves […]
