Cambodia and Vietnam prep time


Usually our trips are relatively last-minute, where we buy out plane tickets a couple of weeks before we leave, and we start packing the night before we leave.
This time around it's different, and strange. And i can't decide whether it's good or bad. Well, there are definite perks: we have enough time to figure out our visas, and time to buy specific things (like mosquito nets). And we can browse our travel guide before, well, before the plane ride there. The biggest upside so far is that we were able to coordinate with Sean's best friend, so the three of us our going together :)

But living through two months while having a potentially amazing trip in the near future... well it's just a really big tease. Most of my working day is spent daydreaming about what it might be like to be traveling right now. I'm not too keen on doing too much travel-guide reading, or too much thinking about the trip at all, because it's way too easy to ruining the whole thing with too-high expectations.

Well, it'll be a few weeks before I can legitimately start looking forward to leaving. So until then, I'll daydream of the pictures I've seen, and hope with all my heart that it doesn't rain the whole time.
