So this is where it begins! Arriving in Bangkok after 36 hours of plains, trains, airports and a taxi. Both my planes were delayed, one of which warned us of "emergency maintance" in Beijing Already I can see how different this area of the world is compared to home and I'm only scratching the surface. By far the best thing about today has been finding my friends and regrouping in this massive city at the hotel. Bring it on Asia!
