Sean-Paul's Travels

Brother Sean-Paul, over to The Agonist, has been doing something very few people (I should say, very few Americans) do anymore: traveling on a shoestring through the hinterland of the far abroad. Sort of a walk-about. After meandering through Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam he's settled in for a bit at Lake Toba, Indonesia. Somehow he manages to find internet access and has been blogging about his experiences, posting snapshots, and also contributing occasional essays to his local San Antonio, Texas newspaper and appearing sporadically on The Young Turks show. Sean-Paul's plans may change at any time but he's headed, slowly, towards the sub-continent and on to North Africa. I don't follow any other travel blogs except the annual Everest approaches (in season), which is to say I thoroughly enjoy his writing, I find it thought provoking, and I commend it to you. And my sincere thanks, Sean-Paul, for sending many loyal Agonist readers over to the EP Podcast!
