My wife and I taught English at an agriculture university in Ya'an last year and know that area, but your western adventures are delightful. There was a journalist, and earlier, a photographer, covering some of the ground you are covering, doing a story about the tea horse trail for National Geographic. Your stories are inspiring, thank you for posting. Any time you are in a town with a college or university or even a good high school, you can ask a student to introduce you to the English teachers, especially the foreign ones, but all will be delighted to see you. The ethnic Tibetans and Qiang are very hospitable and will feed you or host you if you ask. Jim, We want to keep in touch. Bicycle touring and serious journalism are a problem, but we think our point of view is of interest. I can't wait to read the series on the Horse Tea Route. Did you know that a NG story inspired the author who inivented Shangri-la? There is a good history on Just One Opinion. Recently found your blog reports – linked from “Warm Showers”.

Jim,
We want to keep in touch. Bicycle touring and serious journalism are a problem, but we think our point of view is of interest. I can’t wait to read the series on the Horse Tea Route. Did you know that a NG story inspired the author who inivented Shangri-la? There is a good history on Just One Opinion.
