    The amazing Fitree and Tom got ahead of things, and agreed with the village “headman” that we could go on this walk. In the past, there has been trouble as some of the guests were baring too much flesh for this conservative culture to take, resulting in a ban. It’s good to see that through talking and by showing respect, the grievance was forgotten and access granted.

    This island is blessed with some good flat land that can be used for agriculture, and we took in our first views of rice paddies that are so kind on the eye, so compelling that we just had to grab a groupie (with Tom and Pras, Fitree, and Rumi and Ariana).

    Then on to work up a sweat foraging for the new shoots of a particular fern …

    … before cooling off with a roll in the mud …

     

    … and back to our hosts Jane and Luke’s house to make a delicious curry.

    We pluck out the fresh shoots …
    ..to be turned by Fitree ..
    … into a delicious curry.

      You really do go from strength to strength, an amazing foraging trip. I really like the “groupie” and the mud splash but I wonder who washed all the clothes! And yes, that curry looks really delicious.
