I'm also planning on relocating to Saigon for a couple months (by way of Brooklyn), and was wondering if you knew of any reliable resources/guides about the process? Just basic logistics, things to take care of before getting there, etc. Any guidance you might have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Anthony Hey TJ-

I started interning with eurocheapo.com after applying to a listing on craigslist. The pay was almost non-existent (I did legal proofreading in the evenings), but the experience was great, as it turned into additional, better paid work. You can comb job listings for these sorts of internships, but if you're going to be in the New York area, I might even suggest sending the people at eurocheapo your resume and a cover letter. They take on interns quite regularly. Outside of New York, I might do the same thing: contact a small travel publication and try to set up and internship.

It worked. Very neat things you are doing. Just out of curiosity - how did you manage to get an internship with a travel company? And where would you point me should I want to attempt to find a travel correspondent gig-like-thing? Hope you're doing well in Vietnam. I'm in Japan right now-- have yet to make it over there! One day... Hey TJ, your lovely friend Jerusha passed along your blog in the hopes of turning me green with envy. It worked. Very neat things you are doing.
