Wow, I find it hard to let it go, sad actually. A few tears just hit my keyboard. I’ve poured my soul along with immeasurable hours of time into the documentation of the trip; this trip prompted so much emotion! I close the book for now on my backpacking journey to the People’s Republic of China. My disappointment at the closure of Tibet due to the riots that began March 15, 2008, days prior to my arrival in the country, just means one thing. I’ll be back.
For the entire saga, click here, or go to the Trip Journal tab and choose “China.”
Xie xie (thank you!) for all the precious time you spent reading these posts and for the time to comment. It’s been my pleasure to share the journey with you.
Surely some of us will miss this journey. I was moved about your son’s hearing loss. And quite share your sadness saying goodbye to a story so well shared that we can almost feel like we did the trip through your words. You are quite a great storyteller. Thank you for sharing.
