It took me 3 weeks to finally sort out my pictures of Myanmar and upload them onto Facebook. There were many thoughts and feelings during the trip which I would try to pen down in this space in the coming weeks. Myanmar is an incredible country with diverse landscapes, colourful customs and friendly people, but a great pity it’s under military dictatorship. Anyone with a love for Southeast Asia should try to visit this golden land (YC, you read that? 
) sometime in their lifetime. Quoting a traveler in my group who remarked, “It’s a great privilege to have visited this country.” Indeed. And I do think visiting the country will do more good than harm to its people, at least it gives the population a link with the outside world, although care must by taken by travellers to avoid the tatmadaw-linked organisations as much as possible.
My pictures of Myanmar are available on Facebook: Yangon, Mandalay, Bagan & Inle Lake.
