NOTES TO SELF OF A BUDGET TRAVELER
From having to remove everything except my dignity in an airport check-in lounge to sleeping in the living room of a full hostel, from being robbed on New Year's eve to asking for a student discount in a sex museum, from eating a plate of octopus to feeding rice to squirrels that only eat stale bread, I have visited some of the most beautiful places on earth and met some of the best people there are.
I am Marlon and I love to travel. Here are my stories. This is my world.
