Long time, no entry. So long in fact that I've chosen not to look at the last date we posted anything, knowing only that it was in Greece and - looking over the title of this entry - a continent back. We are in Changi Airport, Singapore. The time is currently 6:00 and in thirty minutes we will be Indonesia-bound. We've been in a few airports by now, this is by far the best of the lot. Sleeping over here would be unreal (the airport in Cairo, for the record, is an entirely different story) but our next 'port of slumber will be Denpasar. Come morning, we're off to search for a deserted island beach and slowly make our way to Ubud; this is where we will meet with a prospective organization in hopes of finding a group of like-minded people who keep their profits aligned with their intentions. Wait and see, wait and see. It sounds good on the surface, though - so good in fact that my heart is a little attached to the idea of living with a Balinese family; teaching rural villages of women and children English; exploring Indonesia on by backroad on a rickety motorbike; worshipping goddesses named Dewi in some of the 20,000 temples. Yeah, I like the way it unfolds in my mind. But as time has served to teach, things are never really what you expect - veering left and right, up and down, turning themselves inside out like grand contortionists, changing our minds by re-arranging their contents. It feels right to be traveling again.
Love,
Dewi and Josh
