More travelin'

Word up.

I'm back. Being blogger and rad dad at the same time is hard. So I had to give up being a blogger for a bit. 

Life's been swell. Got a new roof on the house, so that's good. Solid holidays and all that. 
In the meantime I did some more traveling. In December I went back down to the jungle of Peru for work. It was more magical the first time. 
People ride motorcycles through the flooded streets of Puerto Maldonado
Then last month I went to Singapore, Cambodia and Okinawa.

Singapore has cool beer, which is nice on a warm day.
Singapore totally lived up to the hype. Everything is pristine, no litter, amazing public transit. Even away from the touristy areas downtown it's still extremely clean and orderly. The food was really cheap, and it's nice that everything is in English. Unfortunately I missed meeting my sisters there by about a week. My buddy Ryan did a jaywalk!

Singapore also has cool architecture
Cambodia was a polar opposite. Anything goes, especially when it comes to traffic. Don't like traffic, just hop your motorcycle up on the sidewalk. Any place with $1 beers is an immediate like for me.

New places are fun, but going back to Japan is nice since I feel like I've been there enough to know what to expect and how things work (except pachinko). I'm a bit of a pro at the sushi go-round. I even learned to skateboard while I was there!

Getting paid to travel is still awesome, but it's hard to be away from home for long. Until next time...

Post College Plan 1

In about 6 months I will graduate college and supposedly become a productive member of the work force. This scares me. I really don't want to wake up everyday at 7 AM and go to a job for 8 hours. To avoid this I have be thinking of ways that I can still do whatever I want but not be forced to work 48 weeks a year.

My initial idea is to make a fortune on the internet. But how do you make all those internet monies? It's not by selling other peoples shit on eBay. I think I could start a pretty successful website. The trick is catering to your audience. Through my experiences I have found that the most peaceful thing in the world is a fat Asian kid napping. For some reason when an overweight Asian kid is catching some Zzz's it just puts my mind at ease. I bet there are others out there who also find it very peaceful. So I want to start NapTube. It's just like YouTube, but instead of crying teenage girls it's just streaming video of heavyset Asian kids napping. I'll leave it as NapTube just in case I want to expand to skinny albino adults napping in the future. Hey it worked for those people over at CryingWhileEating.com
