Posted on September 23, 2025 by Betsey Horton

Tuesday morning. Chillin’ in the apartment doing laundry, watching Sex and the City reruns, and perusing Airbnb looking for a long-stay place for the month.

Greetings from Malaysia! Currently sitting in a little cafe I found around the corner of my apartment while in search of coffee and pastries for my usual morning routine. Stayed for lunch and the most delicious peach iced tea I’ve ever tasted. This is definitely my new spot. Spent the...Read More

Saturday afternoon. Currently sitting in a random cafe having a Bloody Mary. They brought me a taste tester because it was allegedly “spicy.” It is not spicy by my standards, but I also make mine with A LOT of extra hot sauce. Everywhere in SEA claims their food and drinks...Read More

Friday evening. It’s raining. Again. This is the part where I just admit that I’m over this. All of this. Especially the fucking motorcycles. It’s not my preferred method of transportation.

Wednesday. Noon hour. Spent the morning dealing with stuff. I was finally able to call my grandmother. We had a good conversation. It’s much easier to talk to her since I left. I struggled with her for a long time. She just couldn’t understand me. Now she’s finally coming around....Read More
