Countdown!

My mathematical prowess extends only far enough to calculate pot odds, so I'm not even gonna estimate how many days are remaining before my arrival at Vietnam National University in Hanoi. But as a newly qualified resident of Detroit, Michigan, it is not beyond my intellectual means to recognize that the magical day is rapidly approaching.

So, in honor of this upcoming occasion, I'm announcing the launch of my newest contribution to procrastinators everywhere: Asia's Nap Shots (err... Asia Snap Shots). Like every amazing idea, it came together over the course of several conversations about Asia, napping, Lou Dobbs, investment, and the similarities between China and Vietnam. What emerged was an endeavor to write about Asia through individual encounters that we, the writers (two Fulbrighters and an international consultant) experience while we're exploring Asia.

Stay tuned!
