The bar fight in Paris certainly took a lot of the charm out of the trip, though.
My roommate Erika, who's really cool, is going to be teaching English in Mongolia next year. We're making plans to meet up in Turkey, where her step-grandparents live, right on the Mediterranean. And at some point, we'll go to Namibia together and see the biggest sand dunes in the world.
