The Chiang Mai storm that ate my power strip
A power surge during a storm, a power strip that died silently, and everything plugged into it still working. No explanation.
The day I missed the bus in Chiang Mai
An overstuffed bag, a slow tuk-tuk, and a lesson about what you actually need to pack.
What the bag held in Bangkok
A bag emptied onto a bed after three months on the road. What went in the trash along the way, and why packing creates objects that don't exist.
Thirty-four degrees in the room, five fans
One single problem, sleep. Five objects that claim to solve it, four eliminated, and a selection constraint that isn't the one you'd expect.
