An uncensored westerner in Asia. For my main weblog. Tuesday, September 28, 2004. Penang Portraits I: Young Men. The train ride from Bangkok to Penang, Malaysia, was 21 hours. You read that right -. For a two-day stay in small colonial Georgetown on a little island with no decent beaches? Trains are my favorite mode of travel; they relax and lull you to sleep as scenery rolls by, next to rather than under you, far-far-away, as it does in a plane.

An uncensored westerner in Asia. For my main weblog. Friday, April 30, 2004. The boy has gone back to his home country for 2 weeks before starting a new job here. I miss him, but am happy to sleep undisturbed for a while. He is to bring back for us (hmm - me, really):. Plenty of purple Silk Cuts. Dark lacy underwear: hipsters, thongs, whatever he'd like to see on me. Lube for some extra-fun things. He liked to count them off on his fingers before he left: "Cigs, condoms, knickers.". Printed all over them.

An uncensored westerner in Asia. For my main weblog. Tuesday, August 31, 2004. Is Bangkok's main train station.

Do what you're good at, do what you love and do it with your whole heart. I am quite fond of emusic. It's a subscription service with generous download and re-use permissions and the money goes to the artists. The catalog is richer in some areas than others, and there is lots of stuff there I can't find on the Apple music store (if you listen to groovesalad you know what I mean.).
