Far from do what thou wilt, do what you must is more like a traveller’s credo.
That’s been a big part of what I’ve learned on this 15-month jaunt.
Which is a long-winded way of explaining that a couple of boxes have been ticked;
- I laid hands on My Precious, my passport, this morning, freshly stamped and keeping me out of trouble here for another month, until October 1.
- The
HR Dept of the school I worked for returned – with their seal of approval – the document I need to claw back my expenses from the bike accident. Now I only have two more hoops to jump before getting that pot of gold –- Go to the school and pick up the original, paper version
- Post it with a wad of other documents worthy of a lawyer – to Hanoi
It’s all very wearying. But easy enough to convince myself to do it when I ponder the sad truth that it’s worth 60 hours of online teaching.
