Instead, we wake up, get coffee, drive to work through traffic and smog, race to our appointments and then do the same thing on the way home. Yuck!

It's easy Scot! Be like me, I quit my photography business after 25 years and went full time. Sounds easy, actually not so....
The only drawback about jungle hopping is getting acquainted with the tropical diseases here. I have a friend who is full time helping the Orang Asli and he tops our group by catching almost every known disease the jungle has to offer. Two months ago I just got knocked down by Chinkgunya - a form of Malaria. Medically no cure so far, you just gotta wait it out. It weakens you out like a limp over ripe rotting 'naner. Right now the outbreak hasn't stoped yet and has spread from the south to the north of the country. So enjoy your coffee, traffic, smog and appointments for the time being!
