re: Do you ever feel like you’ve wasted your life?

I’m planning on checking out Vietnam in October when international travel restrictions let up a bit

I may hit you up for recommendations before then

I can imagine that. A jolly one eyed Gweilo running a small island dive populated with locals and expats. Girls of every shape and color serving brews and booze.

A big black iron pot sizzling in the corner. Gems and jade and treasures adorn the walls. Swords and knives everywhere. Candlelight and karaoke fill the room.

Fun but also there’s a tinge of apprehension on the air, like a smile that could turn to a scowl in an instant and someone could lose a finger, or worse.

But then when the gunsmoke would clear and the music would start back up.
