Pan-Asian Gallivanting

Every person that I’ve met on the road has a shit story. One moment in their journey where they eat the wrong thing at the wrong time and then kaboooom…dirty discustingness.

I almost had this moment.

After eating too much Chinese food in LiJiang I suddenly felt it coming on. O SHIT! I hustled back to my hostel clenching by cheeks (we’ve all been there). When I finally made it to the bathroom I felt like I was going to explode, but I couldn’t get the light to work!!!! AHHHHHHHHHH!

After stumbling a moment to get the light to switch on I couldn’t hold it any longer. O SHIT! That moment was about to happen to me :(

Luckily it was only a dry fart! PHHHHHHEEEEWWWW! And nothing icky and sticky came out until the time I made it to the toilette. I got very lucky….but I know that my moment will come. The question is, will it come while I’m on a bus in China or on a boat in India? Who knows? All I do know is that even if it does occur it will be ok because this whole trip will outweigh that one bad moment.

Sorry about the article not being PG…but I have to tell it because even I found it amusing the following day :)

BTW…this toilette is not where this close encounter occured. I’m just adding this photo to highlight what most toilettes in China look like. Not all are this clean….trust me I’ve seen my fair share of bathrooms that are even more dirty than this one!
