Sitting in Singapore

This is increasingly becoming a game of Where in the World Is Taylor Powell... Well to answer that, I am at Changi Airport in Singapore waiting on a flight to Ho Chi Minh City departing in about an hour. I "slept" 3 of the 4 hours from Darwin, Australia to here, but now I am wide awake. Maybe its the delirium, maybe its the excitement, (its probably the delirium, I shouldn't be typing at a computer) but just the general atmosphere of hearing all flights departing to Asian cities - Ghangzhou, China; Bangkok, Thailand; Manila, Indonesia - is enough to make my head spin and give me that stupid gleeful smile on my face while walking down the terminal. The Ho Chi Minh Couchsurfing community is hosting me the first few days Ricky and I are here and I am extremely thankful. My hosts and friends are already going out of their way to have me and they may even pick us up from the airport. It makes me fall in love with Couchsurfing all over again and remember how many wonderful people there are in the world. I encourage the great karma and experience that comes with it - if you haven't checked it out, go to couchsurfing.com! OK, just a few thoughts of positivity and sleeplessness from abroad. I am sure I will have a bit more interesting stories in a few short hours. Love from the last remaining City-State, Taylor
