So I have finally returned back to the land of prayer flags and poinsettias, and can not say enough about how the Canadian experience has helped remind me of how good the West has got it. Although it took about 3 weeks to overcome reverse culture-shock, and be able to walk into dollar stores without suffering from anti-capitalistic anxiety attacks, the overall 6 week adventure was fabulous in being able to spend quality time with family, friends and old acquaintances alike!!! Not to mention, basking in the true luxury of breathing fresh air, eating nutrient-rich and diverse foods, while drinking safe, clean and purified water. Alas, it was also the joy of my surroundings the made this trip very cleansing and rejuvenating (and all accessible right outside my families front door)...
Oh, and just to compound my anti-capitalist fears, it came as quite a shock to see that our national animals are also now buying into corporate media influences... (yes that is a television satellite dish on a random beaver dam near Kaladar, Ontario....). Hope the reception isn't "dampened" by the housing location... hee hee couldn't resist the pun...
Now back to reality...and the impending risk of typhoid and cholera that is inevitable this time of year in this part of the world.... ;-}.
