On the road to points unknown until a time to be determined. September 21, 2012. At long last, we’ve made it to the Final Four of my ridiculous Megatrip Lodging Bracket.

Siem Reap | Jaehak's Megatrip
https://jaehak.wordpress.com/2012/08/11/siem-reap
On the road to points unknown until a time to be determined. Phnom Penh. Angkor. August 11, 2012. I didn’t take too many pictures of Siem Reap proper, but here’s what I have. Martin at the BBQ joint, as we were waiting to eat some grilled boa constrictor. Kris at the same joint. Our giant beer tower when we were out with the driver. The scene at Angkor What bar on a Friday night. I’m only including this since I only have 10 pics of Siem Rep proper. Kris at Angkor What. From → Cambodia. Laquo; Phnom Penh.

Yangon | Jaehak's Megatrip
https://jaehak.wordpress.com/2012/06/24/yangon
On the road to points unknown until a time to be determined. June 24, 2012. Bangkok to Yangon could be the longest one hour flight in the world. Beyond Theravada Buddhism and curry, these places are starkly dissimilar. I knew this going in of course, and it was readily apparent on my two-thirds empty Air Asia flight. The flight included a group of Thai monks who, I assume by their excitement and that they were all taking pictures, had not flown before. I never learned why. I shared a taxi with a couple F...

On the road to points unknown until a time to be determined. September 28, 2012. I wrote most of this a few weeks ago, and it will probably be the final wrap-up piece in this blog. I was going to do some predictable Top-10 sort of stuff, but meh, nothing new there. Thanks for reading. I will continue to post periodically at. Nintendo is right, Nascar is wrong. For the time being. People I hung out with in person:. Not including people I saw in person). So you tell me. Was I really traveling alone? Fill i...

Megatrip Bracket: Southwest Region | Jaehak's Megatrip
https://jaehak.wordpress.com/2012/09/18/megatrip-bracket-southwest-region
On the road to points unknown until a time to be determined. Megatrip Bracket: Southwest Region. September 18, 2012. If you missed the explanation for how this tournament gimmick works, click here. This may be the toughest region of all, and I reckon that these hotels may be a bit more well known in the travel circuit. All but five of them have their own website or Facebook page, so I don’t have to link to myself as much here. 16 – Hotel in Takua Pa. 8 – Mr. Local Dorm. Ko Phi Phi, Thailand. Result ̵...

Teetotaled at Twenty-Six: February 2010
http://teetotaledattwentysix.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 25, 2010. I’m often asked how I like living in Korea. I generally answer that it’s okay, and then list off some perks of living here. For some reason I don’t like telling the truth about this country, probably because I don’t think all Korean people are that bad, they just do things in a way that doesn’t make any sense whatsoever. Here is my real opinion of Korea:. I want to teach and go home! 5) They cannot do basic things. Especially when building anything is concerned. In my...In my...

Monday, May 31, 2010. Healthy Living in Korea: Fighting! In my quest to get healthy I have turned my attention to the last frontier of rebellion and craziness in my life: food. And stuff disguised as food. In the states I was a vegetarian. Not because I don’t enjoy eating animals. Because I do. But because it is bad for the earth and terrible for my digestion. I’m also lactose intolerant. I LOVE cheese, milk and pretty much everything bad for me, but I feel like shit if I eat them. Is about a family that...

Teetotaled at Twenty-Six: November 2010
http://teetotaledattwentysix.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 7, 2010. So the title of this blog is a little. inaccurate, ancient, old news. So we've decided to export all of our previous posts to a shiny new blog whose name represents our current state. Broke and on the road. Check us out under our new name at "On the Road, On a shoestring.". Montevideo, Uruguay: Short, Sweet and Spendy. The blog was written Nov. 1st, we haven't had wifi for a while so were catching up on posting now :). The hotel staff at The Splendido Hotel. El Fogon (kind of BB...

Teetotaled at Twenty-Six: Reflections
http://teetotaledattwentysix.blogspot.com/2010/08/reflections.html
Tuesday, August 17, 2010. I’m getting ready to leave Korea so I’ve been thinking a little bit about my time here, how it has changed me and what my goals are for the next part of my life. Before I came here I had three goals for myself:. Pay off some debt. I’m glad to be out from under the credit card debt and I can always get a forbearance on my student loans if I need to. My goal was to simply see if I would enjoy teaching, and I do! 3) Be more creative. In some situations I could scream, cry or laugh ...
