death wish?
I seriously love SE Asia. Sure, they’ve got some not-so-nice critters, but then so do we. You get used to them (well, other than the giant flying cockroaches who carry off their dead on their shoulders like pallbearers — and, in some places, the hordes of big nasty wharf rats). The FU lizards are maddening, but funny in their own way. And yes, unlike the adorable and most welcome little house geckos (who bravely battle the giant flying cockroaches — great evening entertainment!), they bite.
