You ask, I blog

I, to be perfectly honest, am not entirely confident that travel blogs get read much. I know that I've been excited when friends depart on an adventure and eagerly await their first few posts, then life intervenes and the next thing I know they are back and those first posts are the only ones I've read. But, I was specifically requested by some friends to blog about my upcoming trip so I at least will put in a good faith effort to write, as long as you put in a good faith effort to actually read it. I leave tomorrow for Cambodia. This is my first trip to Asia (Crossing the Bosphorus Strait on my 21st birthday doesn't really count. Neither does going to Central Turkey). I don't really know what to expect. I have a general itinerary in my head for the first few days. I do not have a ticket back home yet. I bought my ticket about 10 days ago. I would claim that this is the most unprepared I've been for a trip, but then Holly reminded me that we cracked open the guidebook for the first time in the airport when we went to Central America. I at least have cracked open the guidebook. I even made a reservation for my first two nights! I've never done that before. Ideas for a more original blog title will gladly be accepted. Stay tuned for more interesting news once I'm actually out of the USA.
