A lot of things went wrong on this trip: a six-hour landslide delay, unbelievably patronizing guest speakers, a bus break- down on the way home, a failed attempt to party with some foreign tourists, you name it.
On the other hand, the food at the hotel was great, wine tastes better in really cold weather, I got to climb down some real, non-tourist terraces and plant rice, and I never thought I'd ever go swimming in the Cordillera mountains (major shrinkage aside). And, of course, the sheer natural beauty of the place and the laid-back coolness of the locals made it all worthwhile.

Remember what I said about sheer natural beauty? Um, this aint it.
mmmm.....squishy mud between the toes.
The coolest woman on this planet. I love her
Weaving. Always fascinating.
The locals get jiggy
LLDD : "... and that's why i think the government should allocate more resources for the preservation of the region's heritage for future generations"
BS : "i love you, man"
