AWOL

I’m going on some much needed vacation tomorrow… well, truthfully it’s a little bit of work, and a little bit of R&R. We’re meeting some friends from Singapore in Ubud, Bali for a yoga retreat. After that I’m off to Hong Kong for a couple of days for business, and then over to Taiwan to hang with Wendy’s family and partake of Taipei night markets for a few days before coming back to the states.

If you try to reach me by email and I’m slow to respond, I apologise… but I’ll get back to you soon.

Random travel review (and we haven’t even left yet!)… I’ve always liked flying Eva Air, but their new travel tips email they send out the day before your flight is awesome. It includes your finalised schedule (in case the exact flight times have changed), contact info for Eva Air in all the various countries you’re visiting on that itinerary, as well as the closest travel offices to the cities you’re staying in, airport information including lounge information/location for the airports you’ll be transiting through, and weather for the various cities you’re visiting. The absolute best part though is that they include pictures/icons and voltage information for the electrical grids in each cities. Amazingly handy little email.
