go east, young man … far east
I’m having trouble sleeping at night. I go to bed early and wake up earlier. This is not normal for me.
But nothing is normal for me these days. I live in Shanghai, China.
Here, I’m still living like it’s yesterday. Today still feels too much like tomorrow. Here, Monday Night Football kicks off at 9 o’clock Tuesday morning.
I lost 12 hours of my life during 18 hours spent hopping from New York to Tokyo and finally Shanghai. Ten days into my Asian adventure, I’d say 12 hours is a pretty fair price. I’d likely give up more.
