Perhaps I’m a little late to the discussion of this, as I haven’t had time to keep up on people’s blogs lately, but did you hear about this?

My friend* is currently traveling in India visiting another friend. He’s been to Laos several times (where he speaks the language, hence the Lao on the blog) and to several other countries but never to India.
