it’s been so rainy recently.
someone was talking about the Mongol Rally the other day, which is this incredible driving tour of sorts. from london to ulaanbaatar. he mentioned how his present schoolmates were taking part, and that we should do it too one day. i went home to check it out, and frankly it sounds amazing. ridiculously so.
given the scale of the journey it’d be a proper adventure - as long as we remain sane drivers. it ranks up there alongside seeing north korea (it’d be kim il sung’s 100th birthday next year!) and biking up to hanoi. 10,000 miles in 4 weeks means that it’d have to be attempted over summer, though, and college summer at that. no way we’d get that kind of time while working, which means that we’d have to do this within the next 2 years. it’s really quite exciting when you consider the immediacy.
so, friends: if i happen to drop off the face of the earth sometime july 2013, i’m probably in mongolia. or on my way to it.
