Yup, Leave Sunday, pretty much lose Monday due to 16 hour time zone change and now I’m in Tokyo and it’s Tuesday (end of the day). I’ve worked out my jetlag stuff pretty well – funny thing is that with it being 16 hours difference you go backwards in the jetlag time adjustment period. Yesterday my watch said -16 hours, this morning it was -7 and now it’s -5.5 vs local time. So even though […]

Everyone so far is incredibly nice and very helpful. Ashley booked […]

Well yes I’m in Singapore (via San Francisco) for work and literally going around the world in 9 days. We are here for a couple of meetings Sun-Tues and I definitely need 2 days to get acclimated and the start of time zone adjustment period started. it’s 14 hours vs home so anything to improve is good. The trip door to door was almost exactly 24 hours, strange to leave Wednesday a.m. and arrive Thursday […]
