contemporary-indigenous wisdom

Is to explore together

When my wife asked me to get involved,

Journey starts
Kunming portraits;
Highway song

Ancient tales displaced;
Modern day norms intervene


Spectacular vistas
Natural wonders;
Man seems insignificant


Flood tide...

we come across some traitors lives.
Promised solution to all complexes,
riches beyond faint heart perplexes.

   A line for breakfast,
That's all I would eat.

  Every night you battle,
To just get some sleep.
