To say that i am a stranger in a strange land in a dream is kind of a reflection of my actual life. Even since moving to SE Asia nearly 20 years ago, I have always been a bit of a stranger when it comes to just being able to interact in my daily life. This is particularly true here in Vietnam because I have put zero effort into learning the local language and even though I have lived here long enough to have completed another college degree, I know almost none of the language. I don't intend to change that either. I know it is lazy but Vietnamese is extremely difficult to the point where almost no one tried to learn to speak it. I can speak Thai, that is my one single-country language that almost no one speaks. I don't need another. In my dream, language barriers were not the problem though. Even though I can't really put my finger on where I was in the dream, everyone spoke English so that was no the problem. The problem was that I was constantly lost and was walking vast distances be
