So the other day I was like, yeah … I’m going to travel to another city 6 hours away (car ride wise) to meet up with some friends. I have no car, but that ain’t no fucking problem.

So I get hook up with a ride from some guy off Craigslist … who is a big, monsterous Pakistan guy who calls himself “Tiger”. I thought I was going to get raped. I imagine him pulling into the curb and sez, “hello little boy …”

Of course, it didn’t happen.

The ride was a big van, around 10 seats and it was filled with a black guy, 2 drivers, 2 lesbians, 1 asian lasian, a white guy and a brown chick.

One of the lesbian had cropped short hair and she was petite and cute. Her “girlfriend” was a big giant 6′2 dyke … with short, cropped hair. At first, I was like, “damn is that bitch a guy or dude?” then I looked at her boobs … and I was like, “I would tap that.”

The 6 hour ride cost $35 … as oppose to $175 for a train ride or bus.

So I was dropped off downtown in the new city. I don’t know my way, but who gives a fuck.

So I walk around and found the youth hostel … it’s basically like a hotel except it’s super cheap (like $30 a night) and instead of a private room, you share with 4 other people … kinda like a dorm.

So I was sleeping there and I’m talking to this Mexican guy who is sharing the room with me.

Guy keeps talking and shit, and we hit it off. Next thing you know, he asking me to smoke weed with him.

I don’t smoke weed but I didn’t declined …. smoked some weed, then some cigs and the Mexican guy keeps talking about how he gets drunk, hits on foreign chicks, drinks beer with the homeless and how he used to deal weed and was high all the time.

I was like, “word”.

Afterwards, was hanging out with some friends and we’re drinking cheap wine in public (WTF?) and just wondering around exploring the city, eating at Chinese restaurants that is probably unhygienic, and going to a HUUUUUUUGE underground mall.

Oh, and we climbed on this huge statue of Virgin Mary in front of a chruch. We groped her breasts and took a picture … some guy in his 20s walked by and was like, “What you’re doing is stupid you know? What you’re doing is ruining religion for everyone” and I’m like “No shit. Keep walking mother fucker, or I’ll kill you”.

The weekend ended with me waiting for my ride back to my town, but “Tiger” probably raped a couple of people in the van and didn’t picked me up, so I got a ride off a random guy off Craigslist.

So we’re riding home, it’s a 6 hours ride and we’re making small talk. The guy is in his mid 20s but looks like he’s 35 or something (white people tend to age fast) and he says he an alcohol addiction councilor …

He ask, “so what do you do?”

I say, “I make money on the Internet … writing ads, copywriting, email marketing, shit like that”.

He sez, “Do you like … work for google or something?”

And I sez, “Ha, no. I do affiliate marketing stuff … you know, selling everything from yeast infection ebooks to ebay shit to … get rich quick ebooks”

I went on explaining how it isn’t call center cold calling but Internet marketing that involves “google ads” and stuff like that.

And he was like, “Oh yeah, that’s fucking cool”.

Then he tells me he wants to be a singer/rockstar/comedian but if that doesn’t work out, he’s going to Law School …. of course I was like, “Damn man, you’ll be balling when you’re a lawyer” but inside I was like, “Jesus man, another loser going back to school and getting a job just to pay the bills and play it safe”

All in all, it was cool.

Who said traveling was expensive?

Protip: If you own a car, you could probably just stay at your friend’s place or sleep in the car.
