Where to in the interim

do i go see macedonia, or do i rent a car in sarajevo and tool about seeing the places that i patrolled when i was in the army.

This is how the coutry was divided for the NATO troops deployed there. I was in the northeast sector from April 1999 to March 2000.

Unfortunately, and time and distance does this, I have lost contacts with all the people, both local nationals and military, alike, from my time there. However, the cities and the culture remains, and I would like to see how it has changed in my more than five years away. Or maybe I'll just let it be what it was and not go back. I tend to do that with my past.

The next major port of entry will find me landing in Singapore. The plan, though it will probably change, has me going north through SE Asia, up to China, Mongolia, hanging out in Siberia and then over to European Russia. The terminus of my trip is far off and only Heaven knows when I will make it back home to the States. Maybe not for a few years. (I have had this fantasy of not returning to America for decades, finding odd jobs and writing about my experiences around the globe).
