Daily Life, Laos

Parting Shots of Laos

July 2, 2011 Sharon 1 Comment

I am wayyyyy behind on blogging. Here’s my final post about Laos (unless I get overcome by another wave of nostalgia).

The Guide Hog

The title of this blog refers to my tendency to “hog” the tour guide in my quest to learn everything about every place we go. No guide is safe – the park ranger in Borneo’s rain forest, the divemaster in Thailand’s Similan Islands, the rice farmer in Southern China, the hostel owner in central Turkey, the Buddhist monk at a Lao temple; the camel driver in Rajasthan, and the list goes on. But now it’s MY turn to be the guide, and YOU can be the “guide hog” while I share our experiences as international teachers and travelers.
