Mumbai
Its sort of funny, I blogged about Ha Noi and that sort of got me thinking about Mumbai. (Also note that both names sort of rhyme...isnt it cool?)... so I went out and searched for blogs about it on technorati. Here is a cool travel blog that a couple from Portland, OR have started (it seems like they're gonna be in Mumbai for three months before they move on to other locations...) pretty cool... some day I'd like to take time off and just travel the world...
Actually, all this got me thinking.. what if I decide to just volunteer with some organization and spend some time in Vnam or some country. I'd really like to do it. But, should I finish my education and get a graduate degree and then go do it, or should I just go next year, take some time (maybe a year) off and then come back and resume studying. I realize that it would take me longer to get established this way. Also, a counter argument goes like, I can start working and take occasional trips during my time off, but that'd so suck since the trip would always be so short. And always like a tourist (eeks!). Oh what fun it'd be to see the world without being a tourist (sort of like the Vnam trip). Hmm...
