After much deliberation I have decided to go against my initial inclination of travelling blogless. To take care of some business first, the picture is from Yangshuo in China and is the most recent one on file although my current position is Hanoi. Ramos. The surname of my summer construction mentor and the now adopted name of my new Minsk motorbike. Tomorrow will be the first day of a country wide trek across Vietnam with our initial direction being northwest of Hanoi. As I have proven to be a horrible communicator expect the posts to be short and rare, not to discourage you from checking up on me. I will try, I promise that much. Up to this point I have had many adventures and seen and experienced many places, but none of them have led to the creation of any amazing stories. The idea is that with the possibility of a larger audience I will be under pressure to produce higher quality work. Well that is all for now.
