I am going to attempt to do this trip w/out a guidebook. Well some of the trip at least. I've already gotten the LP guide to Bangladesh (thank you Faizun). I also think it would be a little too much to attempt to get around that place without a book. I might be a little daring but not THAT daring. I will probably do the same for India as well.
Southeast Asia and Japan though? Nope. I figure with Japan, I can a) get a lot of info from the internet b) it actually has useful tourist offices. And hey, it might force me to use the Japanese I've been learning for the past 9 months.
As for southeast Asia, I've been there before. In addition, there is a lot of english speakers in the tourist industry there, so I think I'm pretty safe. In the case of Malaysia and Singapore, English is used everywhere.
Today I will be purchasing a notebook to keep notes and whatnot. I am also writing a list of items I need to obtain before I leave. Only two months to go, ha ha.
I figure this "method" will force me to ask for help and assistance- something I HATE doing of course.
