Do I really want to live in the U.S. for the rest of my life? I've spoken with a few friends in international development work. The word is USAID is staffing. But it's a huge application process. Then again, what else do I have to do? Study SAS? Maybe it's time to live abroad for a couple of years. I'll get paid for travel, and still be able to write film scripts in the evening, or not. It's NOT like I DON'T like traveling.

Can you link the group of Blog Entries that relate to each trip?
Ummm ... No.
Most of the trips listed occurred before this blog began and even before the world wide web was invented, for that matter.
A summary of the trips on this blog, however, can be found HERE.
