Remember when I said that great things await in 2006? Well, try this one on for size:
In less than 48 hours I leave for Korea.
Seoul, to be exact. Gonna visit my brother there for a while, then take an extended Asian sojourn. Taiwan? You better believe it. Southeast Asia? Perhaps. China? Mongolia? Bangladesh? I wouldn’t rule anything out.
For now, all I can say with any degree of certainty is that I arrive in Seoul at 6:15 p.m. on Tuesday evening and I come back to the US on June 8th.
I’ll have Web access throughout, as I’ll be working — and, of course, I’ll be updating newley.com with both text and photos. I’m writing this from Beaufort, South Carolina, where I’m visiting my mom and step-dad and brother Colin. Drove down here from DC yesterday. I leave on Monday morning from Savannah; I go through Atlanta and San Francisco on my way to the far east. (Sorry not to have announced this a little earlier, but, well, you know how I roll.)
Stay tuned, friends. I’m gonna have some good stories to tell.

Are you there yet?
Would love to, Frans — we’ll be in touch!
newley, safe travels, maybe we can meet up in Myanmar in April.
Will do, Miguelito. Got your voice mail from the other day and will call you to catch up before departing!
