We've just caught up with a vast chunk of your amazing experiences -- from the Punjab to the rice terraces. The photographs and the writing really bring it to life fabulously.

The earthquake casts a grim shadow over the last part of your journey so far and we're hoping you were only affected emotionally/at a distance. Where were you heading next?

Notice there are no photos of your own ongoing multi-model building projects -- winter palace made of water lily leaves; hot-bamboo-torture-cup Great Wall,' chopstick Forbidden City, etc -- but we expect you're too modest. Lots of love. PS More streetscape scenes and street furniture photos, please, for use in MA project work - bins in Candy-Ha would have been particularly useful.
