Many years ago, in a universe not unlike our own, a fragrant tribe of shaman poets concocted a complex soup of mirth and mystical mirrorball madness. As the clouds rolled and the rivers rose, the steaming soup continued to boil, with boiling duties being passed down the shaman line.

Finally when the moon shed its final tear and the stars whispered that it was time, the soup was fashioned into a mighty multi-coloured candle mountain - its wick burning bright in an eternal seaweed trance in the sky.

Then some random exotic erotic neurotic jester came and bit a chunk out of the bottom, made love to a swan and buried the egg deep in a purple and yellow meadow.

What awoke, hatched and grew out of the sugary earth was Simanion - both hunter and gatherer, both child and man, but probably more child, like a knowing child, a plant/animal/mineral hybrid that rides the twilight rainbow for sumfin to do and stuff.

Greetings dear followers of this questionably silent artist! Apologies for the lack of sentience exhibited by me over the past few weeks - I have been adventuring in South East Asia and am currently amongst the clouds in Nagarkot, Nepal.

So far my trip has taken me from Singapore to Malaysian Borneo (Kuching, Mulu and the islands of Mabul and Sipidan), to KL and then Vietnam (Hanoi, Halong Bay and Sapa), Cambodia (Siem Reap and Phnom Phen) and finally Nepal.

Anyone have any tales from their times in any of these places? For example, I accidentally ate snail soup off the street in Hanoi, thinking they were mushrooms, which frankly I don't love to begin with. They tasted of garden. Little ones were fine, but the large ones were a textural horror scene.

Much inspiration has been provided by the incredible temples and epic scenery, and I expect to return refreshed and renewed...and busy as hell, haha.

...And perhaps more than one journal a year would be good this time...*cough*

Til then!
~Simon
