Travel philosophy
Carpe Diem.
Craziest place
Litang Horse Festival, Sichuan Province, China/Tibet border. Hundreds of dreadlocked cowboys descended from the hills for a week of sleeping in tents on a massive plain and imbibing vast amounts of baijiou- all for the privilege of hurling themselves backwards off their steeds to grab white silk scarves off the ground.
Bizarre experience
1) Being invited to a variety of mysterious cuts of lamb and about 178 bottles of beer by a local "town chief" in Inner Mongolia who wept openingly at the privilege of having "laowei" at his table. 2) Being dragged off the street into a local council meeting in laos which consisted of being forced to drink rice whiskey mixed with beer and moving from house to house in a drunken singing procession and dancing with shoes off
