Tainan to Sun Moon Lake
I read your day 532 entry on your blog and would like to know the combination of train and bus you took from Tainan to Sun Moon Lake? I am planning to go to Taiwan in Nov to see the sights and Tainan to Sun Moon Lake is one section that I would be travelling on. Many thanks!

Read your blog and I'd say that is quite a nice journey you're doing. I wish I have your courage! Keep on traveling!

Remember a shop in Beijing with the longest queu ever. The reason: yohurt.

It's looks beautiful, but I never go there, I live in the south of TW. The east of TW always famous with its beautiful scenes. = )

Hikingalone in the Japan Alps
Hello Ben, I've been living in Japan for a while, but still haven't been into the alps enough! I have exactly one month left here and thought your route from Kamikochi sounded really great. I would have to hike it alone however as all my friends are working..haha. I have a decent level of fitness but not much experience hiking alone. I often trail run around where I live - Madarao, Shinetsu Trail and hike up a mountain I know quite often, but rarely venture high up mountains I don't know...especially alone. Your route sounds doable, but what preparatoins are needed for a 4-day hike? Also, I have heard Yarigatake is a hard climb and a little dangerous? Or that could just be my boyfriend not wanting me to venture it alone! Thank you in advance, Jo

One step ahead...
Another blog reflecting much of the same views of us on Kuta.. we had a particularly bad experience there which you will no doubt read about when we manage to catch up but we will never return to this overpriced, overhyped island where they will do anything to squeeze every last Rp out of you. Hope you are enjoying whereever you are at now though.. we are off to Sulwesi next after a very flying visit to Lombok and Flores.. the dragons are amazing if you are coming (or are already) this way!

I love that sunset photo!
No crowded beaches for me. Guess i can skip Kuta, per your advice. But that sunset photo is a winner!

Hello Ben, I went through your amazing story and I'm so happy for you that you have been able to do what I can only dream of doing. The journey you have undertaken is nothing less than a profound spiritual experience for me. Travelling makes you nothing but more knowledgeable , enlightened and a much better person. Some day I too would like to embark upon such a trip. As I follow your trail I see that you are very close to India, my country of birth. Do visit this wonderful land full of life enhancing experiences. I have been away from my country for 3 yrs now and miss it everyday. I would wait eagerly for your updates if you do visit India. Remember India has been quite rightly named a sub-continent as she holds all possible climatic contitions and geographical features within her, not forgetting the diverse cultures intertwined in a complex but beautiful medley. I wish you the best and good health thoughout your trip. Bye. Agni
