Just had an amazing snowboarding trip to Sun Valley, Idaho! We mostly shredded Bald Mountain at Sun Valley and then on the way back to Boise airport went to Bruce Willis’ awesome Soldier Mountain. Check out my new friend Gabe skiing “the burn” the scorched backside of Bald Mountain. Notable memories: my new friends Ben and Zack from Detroit showing me how to make a “dirty ashtray” on a giant apres ski tecate at Apples bar; the guy with an idaho jobkiller tat on his neck; the fluffy halfpipe shaped runs on seattle ridge; explaining to a zillion semi-pro skiiers that no i am not looking for more vert, i am from the east coast where our double black runs are equivalent to your bunny hill covered in ice.

I went to LA for Thanksgiving, which was wonderful. Ashira showed me around Silver Lake and the Hollywood Hills and later I got a tour of the many headshops and drum circles of Venice Beach. I like LA. It’s warm and lovely.

Ok so I’m going to Burma, Vietnam and Cambodia on Dec 6 for a while. Has anyone been there? Can you offer any advice on where to go and what to do?
I’m going to ride my bike around Burma and then around Vietnam. I’ll prolly leave the bike behind for Cambodia. Thoughts?

So! I’m going on a little bike trip around Southeast Asia! Much like when I began my trip down the Mississippi River I don’t know much about touring bikes, the region or the language and I don’t have too much money. But! Never fear, I will figure something out. So, any ideas on what company I should ask for a bike from? This ride is for a magazine article so I’ll be putting out asks to bike companies for gear. Ideas on what the ideal road touring bike looks like? Cyclocross? Cantilever brakes? Places to put panniers? I’d like a shorter top-tube to save my back. Also, has anyone been to Vietnam or Burma? Any advice? Known bike routes?
Where Have You Been?
Stories about travel and far-away places. New Yorkers go all over the world but the city has a way of swallowing their homecomings. Orbit the earth and your friends just ask if you missed the pizza.
This homespun live talk show offers a chance for travelers to tell stories, to bring the world home and share it with the rest of us — travelers as well as those of us who don’t get out much.
Tonight features interviews with three intrepids: Ethnobotanist Nat Bletter on researching the psychoactive properties of chocolate in Peru, Amy Elizabeth on sustainable tourism in Tibet, and Todd Chandler on a grueling cross-country Greyhound cruise. Interviews by Jeff Stark. Gorgeous slideshows tightly edited and mercifully short.
