My parents backpacked through Asia for the two years before I was born (mid-eighties) and they sang the praises of this region even then. I'm so grateful for this sort of positive influence being shared in such an active community as this. Thank you!

Such a lovely thought, we should use this as inspiration ! Never been, but always wanted to... even more now ! Thanks for sharing.

This is Awesome!
