'Much have I travelled in the realms of gold, And many goodly states and kingdoms seen.' - Keats

... a state of mind ...

Feather and beads from Brasil, silk from China ... small pleasures. Afterthought: I can sense it something important is about to happen it's coming up it takes courage to enjoy it the hardcore and the gentle big time sensuality we just met and I know I'm a bit too intimate but something huge is coming up and we're both included It takes courage to enjoy it the hardcore and the gentle big time sensuality I don't know my future after this weekend and I don't want to It takes courage to enjoy it the hardcore and the gentle big time sensuality -Bjork

Chance meetings along the road ... one essence of travelling. Stopping at the side of the road for the driver to take a mobile phone call. This Yi really wanted to talk ... difficult ... but then the driver came and translated. She was trying to tell me about her husband and how he died 8 years ago in a car crash. About her daughter's success in her exams. So warm and friendly ... we all have the same concerns ... and she had a wonderful jade and silver ear ring too! The Yi are one of the 'minority ethnicities' living in Yunnan province.
