Finally released from her worldly form, my A-ko can finally enjoy the rest she has been seeking.
Rest in peace, and farewell. You will be missed, by many.
Dying is the day worth living for.

I flew from LA to Dublin on Sept. 20th, 2007 on a one-way ticket. I've passed through Dublin and Kilkenny in Ireland, Edinburgh and Glasgow in Scotland, Paris, London, Brussels and Bruges, Amsterdam, and then Cinque Terre and Rome in Italy. I then spent 3 weeks in China and toured the Philippine Islands in search of my roots. Vietnam, Cambodia, Australia and Palau came next, then a whirlwind tour of New York and a quick stop to San Francisco. I arrived at home on June 10th, 2008.
Beginnings
On September 20th, 2007, I depart Los Angeles on a flight that will seem to last forever, and arrive on Sept. 21st, 8:40 am in Dublin, Ireland.... without a return ticket.
This is my home away from home, and possibly where I'll jot down some of my meanderings as I go. Unless I have to pay a lot for internet. Then, well... this home is gonna be pretty damn sparse.
My journey, and yours if you wish to follow along, begins here.
