It's just life

I'm going to India in December on a Buddhist pilgrimage (yes, yes - the cat's out of the bag, I practice Buddhism) and just chatted with another guy who's coming who has plans to extend his visit to cover Sikkim. Now, that wet my appetite immediately. Sikkim - a land of wonder and mystery that hardly anyone has heard of. Filled with Buddhist monasteries and fantastic sights. Also filled with all kinds of nastiness that will probably give me dysentery and make me feel miserable. And would I even DARE go back on a plane from such a backwards country? The alternative then is twenty-six hours on a horrible train! Will I even come back alive?!?!? AAAAH!

You know, I like my comfort, even though I'm not as bad as I used to. Ooooh, the dilemma - experience the adventure of a lifetime or go home to my comfy bed. Hahaha, can't even believe I'm asking that question. Input anyone?
