Re: Let's be clear... Jesus! Everyone really hates the idea that these women might be beggars - get over it! As I think I have said before, I wouldn't expect complaints from someone from a poorer section of society if I had put up a picture of someone posh! All of this leads me to conclude that these people who have commented on this are snobs who like to look down on people in less fortunate circumstances than their own. Niki, if you would like to explain to me why you yourself are better than the women in this photo, I would be happy to hear it. The photo-caption (and indeed that part of the blog) was a comment on the paradoxial situation I saw during my very short stay there, where women were extremely assertive yet somehow ended up existing under a regime which treated them like shit. Explain why you consider that to be sexist or racist.
Let's be clear... I am a Persian female and was very offended by the comments you made on the "Iranian Women". Very sexist and racist and completely uncalled for. The caption says: (Iranian Women : They want it and they are damn well going to get it (eventually). In the mean time they assert themselves whilst looking the other way.) These two poor beggars don't represent the Iranian women. They are begging. You must be blind not to see it.
Those women are gipsy beggars dumbass! Those women are gipsy beggars dumbass! Why don't you take a picture of your cock sucker mother and write under it "Queen Elizabeth II"?
Re: I'll call it like I see Anahita, if you want to be angry in defence if Iran, it is probably more instructive to direct your energy at heavily biased media reporting toward Iran and not a few paragraphs of a travel blog plus some photography which doesn't live up to your standards. Your post contains quite a lot of prejudice, which I find ironic.

Well done great pictures I wouldve loved to see pictures of people walking around with andages on their noses, would be quite the sight! So, iran has no bars, or clubs?Other than shisha clubs? Life must be tough there.
Hi there,
we were in Flores a few months back and visited Rinca island, Kelimutu and travelled all the way to Maumere to get a propeller place back to Bali. We agree that this was the only place we saw around SE-Asia that matched the scenery in Laos! The people were cool - whilst staying near Kelimutu we got invitied to a wedding reception which was great experience with the local Arak playing a big part. We will be heading back home from our travels soon and this brings back great memories!
