Summer vacation has officially begun, so that means I can officially start this summer's travel blog, though techically I haven't officially left for my trip yet.As we all know, this summer will take me to Mongolia, to visit the shady character pictured here. I will be sure to document his transformation to rural yak herder as it continues.
Though I haven't boarded the plane yet, my preparations have begun. I've spent $100 on a Chinese visa, $150 on vaccinations, $1500 on plane tickets, and who knows how much at Target, buying things like bug spray and sunscreen.
Now I just have to learn how to speak Mongolian.
Please check back again after the 27th, when I leave San Francisco for the steppes of Mongolia, and all the adventure they'll bring!

Cooool. We still need to have our little visit before you leave! I can't wait to see what your transformation will be after a couple months on the steppes :-)

p.s. Tell Jaspal he's really stylin'. I think he's ahead of the curve on this trend and I can't wait for it to hit the hills of SF.
For the record, if I were to become a herder, I'd have more than just yaks - I'd also have horses, sheep, and goats. Don't worry Rashmi, I'm gonna bring back all sorts of new style to the City.
yeah i bet it will be a big hit in the castro. rid'ed cowboy.
Oh V...
Let's only hope your Mongolian travels find you aboard a sailing ship again and that the sea's bite is bigger than it's bark!
I will miss being your travel partna' this summer, though I know you will return with great stories!
Gole, gole,
Sarah
bon vogage mon ami!
hey v - looking forward to hearing about your adventures. btw, is there a female version of the deel? pls bring one back!
Agree with the garb rec. You both could bust them out at your first dance
i think there is a women's deel, riti. i will bring one back, but i doubt that jaspal and i will be wearing matching ones in public!!
I am catching up on your blog...I like Jaspal's hair and hat!
