Eight million ways to die

Mar 02, 2011 18:27

So my "friends" keep mentioning all the lethal surprises that I can encounter in Indonesia. So far, I think I have been assured that I will die of:
* venomous snake bite
* komodo dragon bite (extra points for dying from spit-borne septic pathogens!) (but actually I don't think there are any komodo dragons on Sulawesi, more's the pity)
* mosquito with malaria bite
* mosquito with dengue fever bite
* a surfeit of regular mosquito bites
* mooslim turrists
* regular turrists
* anti-American turrists
* garden-variety rapists and muggers (esp. in Jakarta)
* dehydration
* a surfeit of Bicycling

Please let me know if you have anything to add to the list!

Edit: just in case I actually DO die, please someone make sure that:
a) April gets all my vinyl records
b) Gwen gets all my Fluevogs

Cheers!
