1. That all good things come to an end.
2. Independent travel is not as intimidating or scary as I once believed.
3. Smile swapping instantly sparks something in me. Perhaps, the gift of a simple moment of connection.
4. Perception of beauty is so varied among cultures. After admiring the appearance of my new Vietnamese friend, I realized she was doing the same of me - a reoccurring exchange throughout my trip.
5. Good listeners teach me about myself. They are patient enough to hear me out to the point in which I come to my own realizations. Invaluable and so appreciated.
6. Mot, hai, ba...yo! = 1, 2, 3 "bottoms up" in Vietnamese. Jul moy = cheers in Khmer.
7. I am Wednesday evening born - symbolized by an elephant (no tusks).
8. Being completely open and vulnerable with another person- friend or lover - is what creates the depth in our relationships.
9. I sort of love SE Asia and fully intend to return one day.
10. “The best journeys answers questions that in the beginning you didn't even think to ask.” Yvon Chouinard
