More boring information

Going to Taiwan around New Year's is going to cost $1,000. I'm astounded. Its like flying to Florida from Boston or something. That grand includes hotels but still.

I looked into traveling around Vietnam after I leave Japan and I got intimidated. There were 3 to 4 pages in the Vietnamese Lonely Planet on diseases to be careful of, it advised travelers to not drink any water or use any ice, it said that scams and robberies are on the rise, and the underage sex industry is BOOMING. Apparently something like a third of all sex trade workers are under 16-years-old too, which makes the whole thing that much more appealing.

I want to travel but man. This sounds hard.
