About Juliet06:

I'm 23, and have lived and studied in Glasgow for 6 years. I'm heading off on the 4th of June to travel indefinitely with my boyfriend Peet, who I met in the pub. Typical.

Hobbies:

My hobbies have fallen by the wayside somewhat since I've been working 2 jobs for the past 2 years, trying to save and pay off student debt and get my ass in gear to disappear into the sunset! When I have free time I like going to gym classes or running, watching movies, and hanging out and drinking wine with my friends.

Favourite places:

I spent 3 months in the countryside in Minnesota, and have to say it's a spectacular place! In winter it's covered in 6 feet of snow, and in summer it's lush and green and beautiful!

Other than that I think Laos is amazing, and I love Japanese cities.

I last wrote from Saigon, which I totally fell in love with in a lot of ways. From there we travelled over the Cambodian border into Phnom Penh, which didn't exactly turn out to be my favourite place to be, but was good in a "that'll put hairs on your chest" kind of way. The main cultural attractions are the relics from the Khmer Rouge era around the city. The infamous Killing Fields lie a few kilometres outside the city, where tens of thousands of people (civilians, mainly) were slaughtered and buried in mass graves. In the heart of the city lies the S-21 museum, a former s
