So I never thought the day would come when I, Zara Ahmed, would write a blog. But since mass email leaves the possibility of people hitting 'reply all' and annoying each other, I've decided to join the 21st century and write a travel blog. Dont fear- this blog will discontinue upon my arrival back in the US, since no one wants to hear about what I make for dinner or how gray Ann Arbor is. But while I am overseas this will likely be your best source of info about my time in Southeast Asia, and beyond. So prepare yourself for stories about weird food, smelly public transport, unusual characters and total randomnesss. Of course, emails (and comments) are still VERY welcome, because I want to hear about your lives and adventures as well! (Yes, working the same job and living in the same place for years can still be interesting, at least to me.) So enjoy and know that I am thinking of each of you, and wishing you could be here to travel with me!
Lots of love,
Zara
