I wanted to ask more about your trip in tibet, hope you could tell us more about the place and how the people reacted to a caucian guy like you oops pls donot misinterpret me, just the lighter side.

It was very funny. In Beijing I baught an air ticket from the capital of Qinghai province to Lhassa. But I arrived there, I have been told that this fly did not exist for one year So I took a bus (2 days trip). We have been blocked by snow and Chenese army manouvers. We slept in a school room. In the bus, my place was kept by the driver's dog. A very bad smelling one, but it looked sacred. In final, arrived in Lhasa, it was wonderful... It was in 1987.

PS : I worked in Bangladesh for 3 years

We where talking on Tibet, and suddendly you changed the talk.

Yes, that is a point for Asian people. You take care very much more than us of your old parents.

Linsi, because you worked five years for a French man, I understand now why you know some french words and like french wine

Dear jacques,

a variety of aisean customs and traditions under its tabs.

but i know you have many stories about tibet and lhasa and i wish you just could post it like.. how did it happen that you slept in a classroom? how about the bus? then we forumers who wish to join could start with--do you know that- &quot;jacques is french who lived in hong kong for years?&quot; then we could go on with these lovely mixture of informations.

ok about these two french at work? haha!

Hi Linsi,

You have to learn a lot. Be my studient. One part of my job is to prepare French cadrees going to work In Asia. I always said to to them in China, Thailand, Malaysia : don't shake hand, don't kiss, don't touch.

You, the Filipinos have been influenced by Espana and America.

Don't they know that the Philippines has been under Spain for 300 years?

In the Philippines, there is a very strong Spanish influence in their festivals, thus making the Philippines, distinctively occidental. Fiesta is the term used to refer to a festival. Most of these fiestas are celebrated in honor of a patron Saint. Some prime examples include Sinulog from Cebu and Ilo-Ilo's Dinagyang.




Dinagyang Festival
Celebrated every 4th weekend of January in Iloilo City. Spectacle characterized by frenetic stomping of feet and hypnotic drumbeating. It is a colorful whirl of thousands of people dressed in unique costumes dancing and chanting all day and night.

Hi Linsi !

You are a professional, so I thrust you for the fish and omega 3. Give me some more advice for my health
