Hi,

Yeah, last time we spoke we’ve set to see how to continue work together aroundend of September. I was looking forward to starting work on a thesis-PhD mywhole trip, but for the past weeks my situation has slightly changed.

It’s something that I’ve been pondering for the past month or so, after mytraveling agenda has changed from excitement and adventure at the coasts ofThailand to a more cultural experience at Laos and Vietnam. The people, cultureand life here now have me fully intrigued and even emotionally attached.Following up on my fascination on how organizational-culture-fit affects and interplay with one’s perspective and feelings, I sometimes feel as though I’m seeing it on a much larger scale in Asian countries, first hand. In a way -somewhat of a qualitative antrophological quest, I guess. It doesn’t come as an easy decision to ask that we put my academic venture on-hold for the time being.

I hope that this doesn’t cause you any problems or major inconveniences, and ifit does - then I’m truly sorry. If possible - I’d be glad if we’ll be able to look into that option again in the future.

Please let me know that you got this message.
In the meanwhile - take care, and best of luck …
