Thai

Before I get started, just wanted to say if you get the chance to fly Thai do it. Heaps of legroom; satay fish & bok choy with rice; but the BEST thing – was my remote control.

Although my outstretched arm passed the tv, with my remote control I could choose from 50 movies, 40 tv shows, stop and rewind fast fwd anytime; turn it horizontally and I could play one of 50 games (including old skool Game&Watch), learn a new language with voice examples, and best of all I could turn it on its side, swipe my visa card and call you as I glide 11 kms over the serenity of Ayers Rock, or the gunfire in Dili. See it here.

Confirmed

Today I bought a ticket to Seoul in South Korea.

Not sure why. I’ve loved the idea of Asia since living in a warehouse on Little Bourke Street for two years and watching too many Wong Kar Wai films, but China’s so big and I wouldn’t know where to start; Japan seems too clean and pretty; so I’ve decided upon Korea.

‘Haendupon’ means ‘handphone’ (mobile phone) in Korea. It’s called that because this site’s going to be littered with photos I’ve taken with it.
