Only Jo

Travel update from someone else.
Jo was a waiter at Laïka. For years. The others referred to him as "Uncle Jo".
Jo left for a long trip of discovery about two weeks before I headed out in mid december on my current expedition. He languished in Ireland through December and January.
He's in Thailand now and, well, in his own words:
Je suis supposé retourner en Europe le 10 Mars mais je crois que je ne partirai pas. Je suis trop bien ici et qui sais... je serai peut-être prof d'anglais bientôt.
("I'm supposed to go back to Europe on the 10th of March but I don't think I'll leave. I'm too well here and who knows... maybe I'll be an english teacher soon.")
This, of course, does not surprise me. Haha. :)
Cya around Jo. Be well.

Well he's certainly got the "Thailand expat" look down pat. Good to hear he's enjoying the trip.
