"Roger, we can't praise you enough for this memorable life experience. Your organization and choices of things to see and do are just a wonderful mix of education, adventure and fun--not to mention the many good and new foods
we got to experience over many bowls of good humor." EP Seattle. 2006.

Worldviews Asian Adventures

with Roger Harmon, Ph.D.

 

Greetings and thank you for your interest in our Asian trips. This is our fifth year of organizing and leading small groups of 7-12 people, plus Roger and sometimes his wife Nancy. We hope this year you will join us for what we think will be our most interesting trips yet! Our next two trips are:


November 15-29, 2008: VIETNAM. Experience 14 days in beautiful northern Vietnam, including energetic, artistic Hanoi, where we begin our trip, and the World Heritage site of Halong Bay, with its wonderful seascapes and limestone cliffs. We have also arranged the special opportunity to explore highland villages, markets and cultures, where tribal traditions have been maintained more fully than in neighboring countries.

 


December 3-17, 2008: THAILAND AND LAOS. Enjoy Nan Province, home of some of Thailand’s most welcoming, artistic villagers, people who are masters of environmental preservation. Then we continue to the former Lao royal capital of Luang Prabang with its exquisite temples on the Mekong River and to the current Lao capital of Vientiane. In addition, we will drive to the Xieng Khouang Province to enjoy several ethnic minorities and to see ancient funerary vessels on the Plain of Jars. Better roads and improved, though basic, lodging now allows us to see the wonderful scenery and rich cultural diversity of up-country Laos and Thailand.

Themes for 2008 Trips As in past years, the central focus of our trips is to experience societies and cultures through personal contact with local people.

Our Approach to Travel Visit places of great cultural meaning and natural beauty where you get to know extraordinary people. Travel with curiosity, humility, and humor.
