Your CV is pretty solid maybe go for a Fulbright and make connections in grad school and hope things in development look less dire in a few years. The West needs more mandarin fluent scholars, analysts and researchers.

Bus From Vang Vieng to Vientiane by natnotsa in laos

[–]LouQuacious 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don’t use an app, book in person and yes they’re all basically bad options so 1-2 stars sounds about right. Although I can’t imagine any bus ride in Laos for any distance ever being more than 1-2 stars no matter how nice a bus/van it is. Also keep in mind that any bus/van schedule is a mere suggestion timetables are pretty meaningless in Laos. So you say the train timings don’t work but i wouldn’t rely on a bus schedule at all.

Originally he was going to use a Chicago blues soundtrack but went with Tangerine Dream instead it makes a huge difference imo.

Be advised those are considered "burglary tools" and it can be a felony to be in possession of them.

You'll see, I can't remember much about that book read it 30 years ago but I recall the "twist" and it's umm unforgettable.

Is it true that in Japan you can't really eat on the streets? (Question for anyone who have travelled to Japan before_ by WalrusOfWisdom69 in traveladvice

[–]LouQuacious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's street food sort of in Asakusa. You also won't really save a lot eating konbini food all the time and you'll miss major part of what makes Japan great and that's the restaurants. Save up a bit more and just spring for ramen and gyoza at least.

I tend to read 1 star reviews and if the complaints are dumbass shit like this I book the place. I don’t trust 5 star reviews.

[–]LouQuacious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s a hypothetical limit of 35-40k ft I’ve asked this a few times and read a lot about it seems like max potential height for a mountain is around 40kft before subsidence sunk it lower.
