I quite often travel the same way. Oh, yes, sometimes my trips will center around meeting someone or visiting a relative somewhere in another country but usually stepping off a train and then deciding where to stay or go is the fun. Not a lot of women like to travel this way. I believe it would be difficult to find someone that can totally relate because how many people have done what youve done? I believe Bob is right to a certain degree about working in a cubicle being your challenging nightmare. But then again, why would one want to do that? What would it prove? I also believe that there IS a big difference between a tourist and a traveler. And I know one when I see one. Basically you have been living the way you have for so long for whatever reasons, and maybe its not as carefree anymore. I mean, Im leaving the first of the year for at least 1-2 years on the road and I was fascinated with the number of positions you have available to work for you. This indicates that you have built quite an enterprise out of your traveling. You have found a way to pay your way to come and go as you please. But have you? It seems your cry is not so much for stability in the parochial sense. I think the best sentence was about not having to make any decisions or not wanting to answer any questions. Maybe you need a vacation?! Remember, the grass is never greener on the other side and even if it was it still needs to be mowed. If I were you Id pick my 4 favorite places, get a permanent place there, apartment or something, and use those as pseudo home bases. You will get back a little feeling of control over your environment whenever you walk in, no matter how minimalist, without compromising what you are doing. Its your life man. Youre allowed to change the definitions of nirvana. P.S. I think I speak for a lot of us when I ask - does your girlfriend do anything that doesnt irritate you?

Ha! Youre a trip. For all of you people out there that have traveled a lot have you ever noticed that when you introduce one of your best friends to another one of your best friends they immediately get along? I think its we are who we hang out with, and there are certain commonalities that exist for us all as human. If youve been blessed with the ability to be aware, to be self-effacing is easy. Isnt it funny how the problem isnt admitting problems we have, its figuring out how to solve them? Thats ok. I think just being aware is 80. I imagine theres pretty much no sacred cows with you, man. I do hope to run into you one of these days. Just dont carry too many boulders in your knapsack, eh? They come out funny in the MRIs.

Recently I saw a programme on the overcrowded conditions in Manila, and the plight of the most vulnerable including the street children... For me it was an eye opener and I was angry that the the main contributory cause appears to be the criminal irresposibility of the Catholic Church and its policy on birth control and the lack of any real political will to change by the countries leaders. However, I know little of the politics of the Philippines.
Until two years ago I didn't know where the Philippines were located geographically. I became interested in an Asian Dating Site and started chatting with a lot of members on the site and slowly built up a picture of how they lived and the relative economic disadvantages with, say, European countries. In this period I have visited, became engaged and recently married a Filipino lady who recently spent 6 months with me in the U.K.
We chat everyday on web-cam but she is reluctant to talk about conditions in her country, apart from the occasional, 'we are a poor country Kevs.' naturally I would like, in some small way to get involved in raising awareness of the conditions in Manila and welcome any correspondence....
