Running and Hopping in Asia

Tim and Tracy's adventures in Cambodia, Thailand and Vietnam. Tracy is on crutches after falling off a ladder while Tim is geared up for three weeks of events with the "World Interhash" - a gathering of the "drinking club with a running problem".

About Me

Name:
Location: Inverness, Scotland

I'm a Brit/Yank who has now settling back in Scotland with wife Tracy after living in New Zealand and traveling in Australia for a couple of years. Having contributed random thoughts on life in the Antipodes I now blog some impressions of returning to my native Scotland after 22 years away, and also document my marathon training to keep myself motivated. I post pictures at www.timcooke.com which also help to tell the story of our travels.

Latest News

I'll keep doing detailed posts with pictures but I thought you'd like to know we've survived the partying in Chiang Mai, Thailand and made it to Hanoi in Vietnam with our friends John and Cindy. It's a bustling city but not at all touristy. This can make getting food without meat a challenge (the other 3 had sidewalk food last night with meat and noodles perched on tiny plastic chairs) but we'll be heading for the more foreiger friendly places tonight. The plan is to tour Halong Bay (spectacular seaside scenery) in the next couple of days... but a typhoon might make for a change.

By the way if you have time leave me a comment, so I know someone is reading these posts!

hi Tim,
Josh emailed me the link - it's great to live vicariously through your travels, esp as we probably won't get to travel much in the next few years (I'm due in May)! Send my best wishes & get well soonests to Tracy, and good luck eating meatless for the rest of your trip. Josh sends kisses. Loved the Dead Kennedys lyrics.
Hugs,
Allison
