Just looking

border crossing


Border crossings are fun! Will you be charged extra by a Cambodian police captain? Will you be made to feel like a villainous reprobate? Can you get your legally problematic motorbike through? Everybody has a different experience. These are ours:

Welcome!

You've found a blog about two people who, for 1.3 million minutes, travelled around Asia learning about its peculiarities. The process was a slow one, and this website is by no means comprehensive. We tried to report the good times, bad times, weird times, and interesting times evenly.
