The bus ride was like nothing I have ever experienced. When I first looked at the little hole we had to crawl into, I thought it was a joke. When I finally learned that it wasn’t, I nearly cried. Realizing that I would have to spend 28 hours cuddled next to a man I did not know did not make me very happy. When you spend many hours in a little space, it tends to get very hot, but for some odd reason, the people sleeping near the windows did not open them! We had to keep asking the man I was next to if he could open the window, but after 10 minutes he would close it. I kept counting down the hours and telling myself it would be okay.
When we got to the restaurant, I looked at the food and realized I should not eat much knowing that I would not feel well the next day. I avoided everything spicy and ate only stir fried vegetables, but apparently I wasn’t careful enough. The next morning I felt really sick and did not eat for nearly 24 hours as a result. As you can see, this truly was the bus ride from hell. For those of you with weak stomachs, I would recommend avoiding all food on this trip. And for the girls, bring toilet paper and be prepared to squat next to other girls somewhere in the forest because you won’t see many bathrooms along the way.
